Challenges for TikTok Due to New Legislation
January 18, 2025
TikTok announced it will be forced to shut down on January 19, 2025, unless the Biden administration guarantees that the ban on the platform will not be enforced. The White House has declined to comment on the situation, while the Supreme Court rejected TikTok's appeal. The law requires its parent company, ByteDance, to sell its assets in the U.S. or otherwise suspend its operations. Existing users will still have access, but services are expected to gradually diminish.
