TikTok Loses Crucial Appeal, Faces US Ban in One Month
A federal court has denied TikTok's appeal of a new law that could effectively ban the app in the US. TikTok and its Chinese parent company ByteDance now have until mid-January to spin off or sell the US operations of TikTok, or face an effective ban on the app in the US. TikTok has indicated it will continue fighting the law, potentially up to the Supreme Court. The law is intended to address national security concerns.
