TikTok's fate in the United States is now in the hands of the Supreme Court, with the possibility of a ban looming. The law signed by President Joe Biden in April requires TikTok to be sold off from its China-based parent company, ByteDance, or face a US ban. The Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments on the matter, and the outcome does not seem favorable for TikTok.
Most of the justices appeared inclined to uphold the law, raising tough questions about its constitutionality. The ban, if enforced, would mark a significant development as there is no precedent for the US government blocking a major social media platform.
