TikTok Gets a Reprieve in Pakistan
 

Hi there,

Happy Tuesday!

Came here to recap the latest in the TikTok drama. As you know, the company was among those banned earlier this year (in June) from India due to the platform's ties to China. In October, Pakistan took similar measures over the platform's "immoral" and "indecent" content.
