The law isn't being enforced. TikTok can just put it back up tomorrow and imply it was Trump that did it.

That won't stop Apple and Google from keeping it pulled from app stores until things are more concrete.

TikTok only blocked access and put that notice up in the app after their partners decided that a statement from the outgoing administration 24 before the transition wasn't enough for them to not comply with the law.
