TikTok 上诉失败 法院维持联邦政府的法案要求1/19日前卖掉

TIKTOK DIVESTMENT LAW UPHELD BY FEDERAL APPEALS COURT


A federal appeals court on Friday upheld a law requiring China-based ByteDance to sell TikTok or face an effective ban in the United States.

The ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C. rejected TikTok’s argument that the ban, signed into law by President Joe Biden in April, is unconstitutional and violates the First Amendment rights of the 170 million Americans that use the popular social media service.

If ByteDance fails to sell TikTok by Jan. 19, the law would require app store companies, like Apple and Google, and internet hosting providers to stop supporting TikTok, effectively banning the app.

Lawmakers from both parties have cited concerns about national security issues related to TikTok’s alleged connections to the Chinese government as a reason to ban the app.
