TikTok squared off today in its first court challenge of a law that would force the Chinese-owned social media giant to sell itself or be banned in the U.S.
Under the legislation signed by President Joe Biden in April, TikTok would be banned across the country unless its owner, the Chinese tech company ByteDance, sells its stake in the video-streaming app. The measure stems from national security concerns that the Chinese government could access American user data through ByteDance.
