Court Upholds Law Threatening TikTok Ban in U.S.

TL;DR Summary
A federal Appeals Court has upheld a law that could ban TikTok in the U.S. unless it sells to an American owner by January 2025. The court's decision allows TikTok to appeal to the Supreme Court, and the company plans to seek an injunction. The ruling raises concerns about First Amendment rights and the platform's role in American communication and business. President-elect Donald Trump may extend the deadline if progress is made on the divestiture order.
