How TikTok was “going dark” in the US


TikTok has gone offline in the US, just hours before a new law banning the platform takes effect.

BBC News Tech correspondent Lily Jamali explains what happened and shows what happens when she tries to access the app.

The social media platform warned Sunday that it would “go dark” unless the outgoing Biden administration ensured the ban would not be enforced.

President-elect Donald Trump has said he will “probably” give TikTok a 90-day reprieve from the ban when he takes office on Monday, but the popular app’s future in the US remains unclear.
