In an unexpected turn, U. S. President Donald Trump extended the deadline for TikTok's sale to an American company. This decision came after millions of users woke up to find TikTok shut down overnight. Famous individuals, including Joe Rogan and Conor McGregor, shared their thoughts on the ban. Joe Rogan posted a meme on Instagram, mocking the ban by showing he wasn't bothered because he never used the app. Conor McGregor, on the other hand, promoted Triller, an American alternative to TikTok, which also owns the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. The ban was imposed due to security concerns about ByteDance, TikTok's Chinese parent company. However, Trump announced plans to extend the deadline to find a buyer that would ensure U. S. national security. This move would likely please Joe Rogan, who is known for his support of free speech. Trump even proposed a 50% U. S. ownership share in a joint venture with TikTok. The ban led many to look for alternatives, and Conor McGregor saw an opportunity to promote Triller. But with Trump's decision, TikTok users were relieved and got their app back. The question now is whether Trump's move was the right one. What do you think?
