TikTok has filed a lawsuit aiming to block a US law that would ban the app in the country – unless it is sold by its Chinese parent company.
The social media company said that move was an “extraordinary intrusion on free speech rights” of the company and its 170 million American users.
President Joe Biden signed the bill into law last month, citing national security concerns – following claims that TikTok’s Chinese ownership raises the risk that data on US users could fall into the hands of the Chinese government.
But, TikTok has maintained it is independent of the government, while parent company ByteDance said it has no plans to sell the business.
