Could TikTok Be Banned… Today?
What we know right now: TikTok will be banned this Sunday, January 19th if it doesn’t demonstrate a willingness to divest from ByteDance, it’s Chinese-owned parent company… Unless the Supreme Court agrees with TikTok that its previous ruling infringes on freedom of speech. The justices pushed back on TikTok’s stance that its ban infringes on freedom of speech, pointing out that a constitutional right doesn’t impact foreign-owned entities. The Supreme Court could rule as early as today. It’s not looking like a happy-New-Year for TikTok. The Supreme Court heard oral arguments related to TikTok’s ban—and whether it infringes on the […]
