TikTok continues to face rejection in the US.

TikTok requested a postponement of the law's implementation from the appeals court but was unsuccessful and said it would take the case to the U.S. Supreme Court. The law stipulates that ByteDance has until January 19, 2025, to divest its TikTok U.S. operations.

TikTok's office is in California, USA.

The US government has long emphasized that TikTok's ownership by a Chinese company poses a national security risk due to its potential access to user data. On the same day, December 13th, the US House Committee on China requested that the leaders of two American technology companies, Apple and Alphabet, be prepared to remove TikTok from their app stores in the US.

Trump's view on TikTok

In an interview with NBC News on December 9th, US President-elect Donald Trump also expressed his views on the US federal appeals court's decision last week to uphold the law requiring Chinese company ByteDance to divest from the social media platform TikTok by 2025 or TikTok will be banned in the US.

Trump softens his stance on TikTok, setting conditions for the US remaining in NATO.

The leader said he would seek to protect TikTok so that other companies wouldn't become a monopoly. Trump claimed to have used TikTok very successfully in his campaign, winning the support of young people by a 30% margin over his opponent. According to NBC News, while Trump has garnered the most support from those under 30 among Republican presidential candidates since 2008, among voters aged 18-29, Democratic candidate Kamala Harris has 54% support while Trump only has 43%.

"I use TikTok so I can't completely hate it. It's very effective. But I'll say this, if you do that (ban TikTok), something else will come along and take that place and maybe that's not fair. They have the right to ban it if they can prove that Chinese companies own it. That's what the judge said," Trump said.
