Supreme Court Upholds TikTok Ban Unless Chinese Owner ByteDance Divests by Sunday
Jan 17, 2025, 03:20 PM
The U.S. Supreme Court has unanimously upheld a federal law requiring TikTok's China-based parent company, ByteDance, to divest its ownership of the popular social media platform or face a nationwide ban. The decision paves the way for TikTok to be banned in the United States as soon as Sunday, January 19, unless ByteDance complies with the divestiture requirement. The Court sided with Congress's national security concerns over claims that the ban violates the First Amendment. The Biden administration has signaled that no action will be taken, and it remains unclear what options are available to President-elect Donald Trump when he assumes office on Monday.
