A United States federal appeals court on Friday rejected an emergency bid by TikTok to temporarily block a law that would require its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to either sell the social media platform or face a ban of the app in the United States.
It’s a blow to the Chinese social media app. A United States federal appeals court on Friday rejected an emergency bid by TikTok to temporarily block a law that would require its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to either sell the social media platform or face a ban of the app in the United States.
The law, which is to take effect on January 19, could mean TikTok will be shut down for its more than 170 million American monthly users. This comes after U.S. President Joe Biden signed a law in April requiring TikTok to divest following widespread concerns from lawmakers about national security issues involving the app.
In a post on X, TikTok says it plans on taking the case to the Supreme Court. However, it still remains to be known whether the Supreme Course will take up the case.
