Supreme Court Upholds TikTok Ban: Platform Faces Uncertain Future in the U.S.

In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court has upheld a federal law requiring TikTok's Chinese owners to either sell or shut down the app by January 19, validating Congress's national security concerns. This ruling may result in TikTok going offline temporarily, impacting millions of users. Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump and his team are seeking ways to address security apprehensions while negotiating the platform's future. As the Biden administration exits, their stance on enforcing the ban remains non-committal, leaving TikTok in a state of uncertainty.
