BTCCSquare news:
TikTok remains officially banned in India, dispelling rumors of a potential return after brief website accessibility sparked speculation. The short-video platform, owned by ByteDance, has been blocked since June 2020 under India's IT Act Section 69A due to national security concerns.
Government officials confirmed the ban remains active, attributing the temporary website access to network misconfigurations. Similar incidents occurred in September 2022, highlighting persistent technical glitches rather than policy shifts.
Global scrutiny of TikTok intensifies as Canada and Western nations examine security risks associated with the Chinese-linked app. The platform faces mounting regulatory challenges despite its popularity in other markets.
