Biden Enacts Bill To Ban TikTok; App Plans Legal Action

Published

on

United States President Joe Biden has signed a bill that aims to ban the social media platform TikTok. The legislation, previously approved by Congress, mandates TikTok’s Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to divest the app within nine months or risk a US ban.

Biden signed the bill, part of a $95 billion foreign aid package, on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, TikTok has vowed to take legal action against the new law.

TikTok spokesperson Alex Haurek called the law “unconstitutional” in a statement and vowed to “challenge it in court.”

TikTok won a legal battle against former President Donald Trump’s attempt in 2020 to force the sale of TikTok via an executive order that would prohibit any U.S.-based transactions with ByteDance if the company did not divest the app within 45 days.
