Microsoft is considering taking over the ByteDance-owned TikTok in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand as confirmed by the company itself
The official confirmation came after reports surfaced that Microsoft has halted its bid to buy the US operations of China-based TikTok after President Donald Trump vowed to ban the short-video making app that has over 80 million monthly users in the country.
Earlier this year, Microsoft said it will make productivity the focus of the digital assistant and as part of the shift, its digital assistant Cortana will lose some of its more consumer-facing features
Microsoft has said it will move quickly to pursue discussions with TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, in a matter of weeks, and in any event completing these discussions no later than September 15, 2020. During this process, Microsoft looks forward to continuing dialogue with the United States Government, including with the President Trump.
TikTok has been accused of sharing user data with China but the ByteDance-owned app has always denied the accusations and made a point that it is independent of its China-based parent company.
US President Donald Trump has said that he is not in favour of any US company buying TikTok, owned by Chinese company ByteDance after reports surfaced that Microsoft is in talks of acquiring US operations of the Chinese app.
In what comes as a major blow to TikTok and with an extension, to China, the United States of America is planning to ban the video-sharing app. President Donald Trump has made his intentions clear while saying, “We are looking at TikTok, we may be banning TikTok. We may be doing some other things, we have a couple of options… But we are looking at a lot of alternatives with respect to TikTok.”
