🔆Joe Biden signs bill to ban TikTok in US unless it is sold.
✅The proposed law would allow TikTok to continue to operate in the US if Bytedance was to sell it within nine months.
✅The legislation stems from growing concerns that TikTok’s Chinese owner, ByteDance, may be beholden to the Chinese government. Government officials fear that the data TikTok collects from its approximately 170 million American users could pose a national security threat.
✅Recent national security laws passed in China, which can compel organizations to assist with intelligence gathering, have further fueled these concerns, despite ByteDance’s repeated assurances that it operates independently of the Chinese government.

🔆How a ‘New’ Japan Promises to Transform Asian Geopolitics?
📍Why in News?
✅Japan’s PM’s (Fumio Kishida) address to the US Congress and the developments from his summit meeting with President Joe Biden, announced the arrival of a new, assertive Japan to the world.
✅What is the Change that Japan is Undergoing? After World War II, a defeated Japan adopted a policy of pacifism. Today, Japan is set to become a major military power, transforming its civilian industrial capability into a military industrial complex. From being a US protectorate, it now becomes an American partner and a significant contributor to Asian and Indo-Pacific security.
✅What is the Reason for this Radical Change? A mix of external and internal factors has contributed to its reorientation in the 21st century.
On the external front, the rise of China and North Korea;
the deepening military bonds between Beijing and Moscow; and the fears that the US could withdraw its security protection to Japan.
Internally, this situation strengthened conservatives in Tokyo, who wanted to see Japan becoming a ‘normal power’.
✅What Exactly is Japan Doing to Become a Geopolitical Power?
First, Japan has done away with the historical cap (~1% of its GDP) on defence expenditure.
Second, Japan is in the process of further strengthening its counter-strike capability in the form of cruise missiles.
Third, Japan has eased its self-imposed ban on exports of lethal weapons to friendly countries. Fourth, Japan-US are in the process of revising the command-and-control framework governing their defence forces.
