TikTok Expects Supreme Court to Overturn US Ban

TikTok anticipates that the United States Supreme Court (SCOTUS) will reverse a recent decision by an appeals court that upheld the federal prohibition on the short-video social media platform within American soil.

The social media platform stated, "The Supreme Court has an established historical record of protecting Americans' right to free speech, and we expect they will do just that on this important constitutional issue."

Previously, an appeals court for the District of Columbia Circuit dismissed TikTok's efforts to challenge a law requiring the platform to be banned unless its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, divests its ownership stake in the app.
