On Friday, January 17, the Supreme Court ruled that the ban on TikTok could go into effect this weekend, rejecting an appeal by the owners of the popular app who argued that the ban violated the First Amendment to the Constitution. This is reported by CNN. It is noted that the court issued a decision without signatures, and it did not indicate any disagreements. The decision, which comes after warnings from the Biden administration that the app poses a “serious” threat to national security because of its ties to China, will allow it to be banned as early as Sunday – although it remains unclear whether the app’s 170 million US users will notice any changes at all.
