Indonesia has reinstated TikTok’s local operating license after it shared data requested by the government that was linked to the nationwide protests between late August and September.
TikTok provided the requested data on “traffic escalation and TikTok Live monetization activities” during the period of Aug. 25 to Aug. 30, via an official letter dated Oct. 3, said Alexander Sabar, an official at Indonesia’s communications and digital ministry.
Government authorities temporarily stripped the social media platform of its status as a registered electronic systems operator late Friday, after it did not submit complete data as requested.
