TikTok may keep ByteDance’s algorithm post-sale, Financial Times reported

  • TikTok would still be able to access ByteDance’s algorithm once it’s sold, Financial Times reported citing people familiar with the matter.

  • Trump has once again extended the dateline for a TikTok ban to December.

  • Yesterday, Trump’s administration said a framework deal for the sale of TikTok had been reached with China.

Assessment

If true, the tailwind for Meta Platforms would likely be limited, since TikTok could continue operating normally with its algorithm intact.
