TikTok is appealing to the Supreme Court to overturn a lower court ruling that upholds a law aimed at banning the app in the US due to national security concerns. The law would force TikTok's Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to sell the app by January 19th or face a ban. This move comes after President-elect Donald Trump met with TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew amidst ongoing debate about the app's future in the US.
TikTok will ask the Supreme Court to overturn a federal appeals court ruling, which upheld the law targeting the app on the grounds of national security concerns.TikTok asked the Supreme Court to block a law that would effectively ban the social media app in the United States by Jan. 19 if its Chinese owner ByteDance does not sell the company.
The appeals court in that ruling cited national security concerns raised by members of Congress who backed the law."You know, I have a warm spot in my heart for Tiktok," Trump said, pointing to his electoral performance among young voters in November. The company's attorneys argued there is a"strong public interest" in having the Supreme Court review the appeals court ruling upholding the law in question."
