Even with any assurances from Donald Trump, companies like Apple, Google, and Oracle would be taking a risk by not complying with the TikTok ban.

TikTok said it will be “forced to go dark” on Sunday, Jan. 19, unless it receives a “definitive statement” from the outgoing Biden administration that the app’s tech partners won’t be penalized under the divest-or-ban bill.

The Supreme Court upheld on Friday a law banning TikTok in the United States on national security grounds if its Chinese parent company ByteDance does not sell it, putting the popular short-video app on track to go dark in just two days.

Donald Trump had asked the Supreme Court to delay TikTok’s ban-or-sale law to give him an opportunity to act once he returns to the White House.

Unless TikTok’s China-based parent company, ByteDance, sells the app into new ownership, TikTok will be removed from Apple and Google app stores on Sunday, Jan. 19, reports CNN. The app will still be accessible on phones that have it previously downloaded, but it will not be able to update.

TikTok said it will have to "go dark" this weekend unless the outgoing Biden administration assures the company it won't enforce a shutdown of the popular app after the Supreme Court on Friday unanimously upheld the federal law banning the app unless it's sold by its China-based parent company.

TikTok will almost certainly disappear on Sunday, which means you'll lose access to your videos. We'll show you how to download them to your phone.

The company argued that the law, citing potential Chinese threats to the nation’s security, violated its First Amendment rights and those of its 170 million users.

The company is one of the app’s leading server providers, managing the data centers where billions of 40-second videos are stored.

The Supreme Court upheld the ruling that could ban TikTok on Sunday, but “TikTok refugees” across the country are already finding new platforms.
