The Trump administration is contemplating a plan to resolve TikTok's legal challenges by leasing its algorithm from ByteDance while forming a new U.S. entity led by Oracle. Although some in the White House debate whether this would effectively remove ByteDance's operational control, the proposal might bypass the need for Chinese approval amid rising tariffs. User data security is the main focus in negotiations, overshadowing concerns about the algorithm itself, following earlier unsuccessful attempts to safeguard TikTok's data during the Biden presidency.
Under the new proposal, a U.S.-led entity would manage TikTok's operations, yet concerns persist regarding ByteDance's influence over the app and data security.
The primary focus of discussions around TikTok now centers on ensuring personal data safety for American users, rather than just the app's algorithm.
