Joe Biden overturned executive orders aimed at banning TikTok, WeChat and 8 Chinese payment applications in the United States. The measures taken by Donald Trump have been replaced by a single executive order that sets out a rigorous analysis of threats to the country's national security.

Donald Trump's term as president of the United States was certainly marked by the “war” open to Chinese technology , including the saga with the popular TikTok application  . 

However, with the entry of Joe Biden as the new president, several of the executive orders signed by the previous ruler have been reversed . 

The ruling also applies to WeChat and 8 Chinese payment applications in the United States , to which Donald Trump's government had also pointed batteries. However, although they have “escaped” the ban, the targeted applications group does not escape scrutiny by the US government.

In a statement, the Biden Administration indicates that it is committed “to promoting an open, interoperable, trustworthy and secure Internet”, “protecting human rights online and offline” and “supporting a vibrant and global digital economy”.
