Oracle Confirms Deal with TikTok Owner ByteDance to Become ‘Trustworthy’ Technology Partner

Oracle confirmed it has struck a deal with TikTok-owner ByteDance, weeks after the Trump Administration ordered a TikTok divestiture in the U.S. The proposal for an agreement still needs to be approved by the US government.
