Well that didn't take long. Wow, zero respect for Americas system and politicians. Wait until this defiance becomes an attack on Taiwan...
You have to love how a state run system like China which bans, blocks, censors and denied their citizens access to whatever they want to block is telling America "you can't do what we do here, so go F yourself!".
Chinese citizens can't access Facebook, youtube or Twitter but you Western patsies, you MUST accept our state run social media!
I bet Maria on Fox News will cover this story.
TikTok's Chinese parent company ByteDance says it has no intention of selling the business after the US passed a law to force it to sell the hugely popular video app or be banned in America.
"ByteDance doesn't have any plans to sell TikTok," the company posted on its official account on Toutiao, a social media platform it owns.
TikTok did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the BBC.
Earlier this week, TikTok said it would challenge in court the "unconstitutional" law.
The statement from ByteDance came in response to an article by the technology industry website The Information that said it was exploring the potential sale of TikTok’s operation in the US without the algorithm that powers it.
"Foreign media reports of ByteDance selling TikTok are not true," the company said in the post, which included a screen shot of the article with the Chinese characters meaning "false rumour" stamped on it.
