This is a stomach turning development. Not just a gamble for the companies, but a gamble for our country.
I'm told TikTok's host (Oracle) and CDN (Akamai) brought it back online today because Trump assured them they'd not be subject to penalties - something he can't entirely promise.

Whatever one's feelings on the ban's merit, they're defying federal law based on a not-yet-president's word. Huge gamble
