The maker of the popular Battle Royale game is being banned from Apple's App Store after skirting the tech giant's rule that it receive a 30% cut of every purchase.

Mayer, who was on the job as TikTok's chief executive for three months, said while it is the right time for him to step down a "resolution" for the company will happen "very soon."

Kevin Mayor, new CEO of the Chinese app TikTok, is leaving saying the "political environment has sharply changed." TikTok is under pressure from the Trump administration over its ties to China.

Epic Games' battle against Apple's App Store fees could hit home for millions of Fortnite fans on Thursday. That's when Epic is set to release a big update to the popular video game.

The White House has targeted the Chinese-owned app with an executive order that would effectively ban it from operating in the U.S. Lawyers for TikTok say the president's action is unconstitutional.

Uber and Lyft are fighting for survival in California after a state judge ordered that the companies consider all of its drivers employees.

The move follows a previous executive order from the president that would make "transactions" between U.S. citizens and the Chinese-owned app illegal.

Uber and Lyft have been fighting California over whether drivers are employees, entitled to benefits, or independent contractors. A state judge orders them to consider all those drivers employees.

Lawyers for the video-sharing app are likely to say the executive order was unconstitutional, arguing the company was not informed, as is standard, and the national-security concerns are baseless.

The president also issued an executive order aimed at cutting ties between the U.S. and the owner of the popular Chinese communications and social media app WeChat.

A lawsuit alleging that TikTok collects and sends American users' data to China could cost the company hundreds of millions of dollars. TikTok denies the allegations.

The U.S. operation of video-sharing app TikTok is on the market. President Trump says the company that owns the app has to sell it by next month or he will ban it over national security concerns.

In its first public acknowledgement of a deal that could be worth in the billions of dollars, Microsoft said it is continuing talks with TikTok about a potential takeover of the hugely popular app.

The president's announcement comes as Microsoft is in talks to acquire the app, which is owned by ByteDance, a Chinese company.

In the first criminal charges connected to the Twitter hack earlier this month, state and federal authorities reveal new details about how the scheme allegedly occurred.

TikTok CEO Kevin Mayer attacked the social media network on the same day Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg will testify before Congress. Mayer also committed to making TikTok's algorithm public.

The CEOs tell Congress that the giant American tech companies do not stifle competition, saying the concern that too much power is concentrated in too few companies is unfounded.

The heads of Facebook, Google, Amazon and Apple will face lawmakers' questions about whether they are using their power to squash competition.

The White House is considering a number of economic sanctions to cut off the hugely popular Chinese-owned app from U.S. users over national security concerns.
