Supreme Court upholds law that could ban TikTok in the U.S., leaving the matter to Trump

The Supreme Court has upheld a law that could potentially lead to a ban on TikTok in the United States, leaving the final decision in the hands of former President Donald Trump. This law, which was part of a broader legislative effort to address national security concerns over data privacy and potential foreign influence, gives the administration the authority to ban or force the sale of TikTok if it is deemed a threat. The decision came after a lower court had blocked the enforcement of this law, citing First Amendment rights. However, the Supreme Court's ruling reversed this, arguing that the government's interest in national security outweighs potential free speech concerns. The matter now rests with Trump, who has the power to decide whether to enforce the ban or negotiate a deal with TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, to mitigate security risks.
