The DOJ sent letters to major tech companies, assuring them they wouldn't face penalties for violating a law banning US web services from working with TikTok. The law, aimed at forcing TikTok's sale due to national security concerns, threatened large fines. The DOJ promised to protect companies from enforcement and intervene in potential litigation. These letters were sent to app store operators, cloud hosting services, and other tech firms after Trump delayed the law's enforcement. The situation remains unresolved, with Trump issuing extensions while TikTok's sale is pending.
