U.S. Supreme Court Signals Potential TikTok Ban: Rising Security Concerns

The United States Supreme Court has indicated that it may implement a ban on TikTok, a social media app used by approximately 170 million Americans. The potential prohibition stems from increasing concerns regarding the platform's affiliations with China and the ensuing risks to national security. A law recently passed by Congress in April 2024 aims to protect the data of American citizens using TikTok, offering the option for the company to either sell its U.S. operations or face a total ban. This legislation is set to go into effect on January 19, 2025.
