Supreme Court upholds law banning TikTok in the U.S.
Friday, 17 January 2025 () The law mandates that TikTok be banned in the United States on Jan. 19, unless Chinese company ByteDance divests itself of ownership. Attorneys for TikTok had challenged the law's constitutionality.
The Supreme Court upheld the law banning the popular social media app today -- noting the law is constitutional, so the ban is set to begin Sunday, the day before Trump's inauguration.
The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld a law effectively subjecting TikTok to a national ban on Sunday. The massively popular social media platform that is used by roughly half the country will be shut down, unless there's an 11th-hour lifeline from President-elect Donald Trump, who has said he can reach a deal to rescue the app. The Hollywood Reporter spoke to TikTok creators and asked how they're feeling about the Supreme Court's decision.

Donald Trump's involvement in the TikTok issue stems from his actions as President of the United States in 2020. Back then, he sought to ban TikTok over national security concerns, citing fears that the app, owned by the Chinese company ByteDance, could potentially share user data with the Chinese government. His administration attempted to force ByteDance to sell TikTok to a U.S. company or face a nationwide ban.
