TikTok said Monday it is in talks with Jordan to lift a ban that has been in place since December after videos posted on the app were accused of "inciting murder and chaos", AFP reported.
Jordanian authorities on December 16 suspended use of the app in the kingdom, after a senior police officer was killed and others were injured during protests over fuel prices in the country's south.
"We have faith that through our ongoing conversations with the authorities, we can arrive at a resolution that would allow TikTok to continue serving the millions of users in Jordan," TikTok said in a statement.
"We are also committed to keeping TikTok a safe and positive environment for our global community," the statement added.
Government spokesman Faisal al-Shaboul in December accused TikTok of "publishing a huge amount of videos inciting murder and chaos" during the protests that were going on at the time.
49 security force members were reported injured and 44 people were arrested during the protests, the authorities said at the time.
TikTok has been banned in government devices in several US states. Wisconsin and North Carolina announced bans last Thursday, with Kentucky making a similar decision on Friday.
New Jersey, Arkansas and Ohio made similar moves earlier in the week.
In late 2022, the US House Committee on House Administration announced that it was banning TikTok from all House-managed mobile devices "due to a number of security risks,” CBS News reported.
Two weeks earlier, the Senate passed a bill that would ban TikTok from government devices.
