A U.S. federal appeals court has ruled in favor of a law requiring ByteDance to divest TikTok in the U.S. by early next year or face a ban.
The ruling emphasizes national security considerations regarding China, potentially paving the way for an appeal to the Supreme Court before the January 19 deadline.
This legislation must ensure TikTok is no longer controlled by a Chinese entity, which includes certifying a path to divestiture where significant progress has been made.
With the situation evolving since 2020, when efforts to ban TikTok were previously blocked, the new requirement signals a serious escalation of governmental scrutiny.
