US Supreme Court Upholds Tiktok Ban For National Security

U.S. Supreme Court building is seen in Washington

The Supreme Court has recently ruled to uphold a ban on TikTok in the US, citing concerns about national security. Attorney General Merrick Garland emphasized that this decision will help prevent the Chinese government from using TikTok as a tool to undermine America's security.

Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco highlighted that the next steps will involve implementing and ensuring compliance with the law, which is set to go into effect on January 19. This process is expected to unfold gradually over time.
