Federal employees can download TikTok on government devices after ByteDance's divestiture, DOJ says

Federal employees can now download TikTok on government devices after ByteDance transferred control of U.S. operations to a majority American-owned joint venture, TikTok U.S. Data Security. The Department of Justice concluded this restructuring eliminated national security risks, reversing a 2022 ban. A 2024 law required ByteDance to divest or face a U.S. ban, upheld by the Supreme Court in 2025.
