TikTok Plans to Sue Over US Legislation That Could Ban App

Subtitle:

The Chinese-owned company says it will file a lawsuit to block a bill that would force it to sell TikTok or face a ban in the US.

Lawsuit to be Filed Against Biden's Legislation:

TikTok has announced that it will take legal action against a recently passed law that would require its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to sell the app or face a ban in the United States. The legislation, signed into law by President Joe Biden on Wednesday, gives ByteDance nine months to divest TikTok, or the company could face a ban from operating in the US.

TikTok's Response:

In a statement, TikTok said that it is "disappointed" by the new law and that it "fundamentally misunderstands the nature of our company." The company also said that it is "confident" that it will be able to "resolve any concerns" that the US government has about TikTok's operations.

Previous Legal Challenges:

This is not the first time that TikTok has faced legal challenges in the US. In 2020, former President Donald Trump issued an executive order that would have banned TikTok from operating in the US, but that order was later blocked by a federal court.

Impact on TikTok's Business:

If the new law is upheld, it could have a significant impact on TikTok's business in the US. TikTok is one of the most popular social media apps in the world, with over 100 million monthly active users in the US alone. A ban on the app could cost TikTok billions of dollars in lost revenue.

Conclusion:

The lawsuit that TikTok is planning to file is likely to be a major test of the US government's authority to regulate foreign-owned companies. The outcome of the lawsuit could have implications for other Chinese-owned companies operating in the US.
