More than two dozen current and former employees told the Financial Times that TikTok has only become more deeply interwoven with ByteDance as tensions over the app’s ownership escalated.

NEW YORK (AP) — Legislation forcing TikTok’s parent company to sell the video-sharing platform or face a ban in the U. S. received President Joe Biden’s official signoff Wednesday. But the newly minted law could be in for an uphill battle in court.
