Reuters exclusively reported that TikTok is working on a clone of its recommendation algorithm for its 170 million U.S. users that may result in a version that operates independently of its Chinese parent and be more palatable to American lawmakers who want to ban it. The story contradicted TikTok’s own claims that this was impossible technologically or commercially according to a lawsuit it filed against the US government to block a new law that threatens to force a sale of its US division or an outright ban from the US.
