Although the U.S. Federal Court earlierturn downByteDance postponed its application for an order to split TikTok's US business, but the Supreme Court later agreed to it.Discuss again,預計在2025年1月10日對此進行辯論,而最終將於1月19日做出裁決。
The US government is currently demanding that ByteDance divest its TikTok business within the US, threatening to ban TikTok services in the US. ByteDance has filed a lawsuit alleging the order is unconstitutional, but the Court of Appeals has ruled that the US government's actions are not unconstitutional. Consequently, ByteDance subsequently filed an emergency motion in federal court seeking to postpone the effective date of the order to divest TikTok's US operations, but the motion was denied by federal court.
However, the Supreme Court has now agreed to discuss this matter again, and perhaps a different ruling will emerge.
Prior to this, the US government was worried that the use and sharing of information by as many as 1.7 million American users on TikTok might become a channel for the Chinese government to steal information within the United States. However, TikTok denied sharing data content with the Chinese government. It also pointed out that the new US government law was unconstitutional and affected the freedom of speech of users in the United States. It also emphasized that data used in the service in the United States will not be transferred overseas, but will only be stored on Oracle's servers in the United States.
However, relevant reports at the beginning of this year pointed out that TikTok and its parent company ByteDance do still share some data, so it is difficult to convince the US government that it has not transmitted any data back to China. At the same time, relevant US government officials also stated that the solutions previously proposed by TikTok still cannot improve the potential national security risks it may pose, so they believe that it is necessary to split its business in the United States.
