Federal Court Ruling Brings TikTok Closer to U.S. Ban

TL;DR Summary
A US appeals court has upheld a law requiring TikTok's owner, ByteDance, to sell the platform or face a ban by January 2025, citing national security concerns over data sharing with China. The ruling, which TikTok plans to challenge, could lead to the app's removal from app stores and web-hosting services if divestiture doesn't occur. The decision has significant implications for TikTok's operations in the US, one of its largest markets, and has sparked a debate over free speech and data privacy.
