Summary

The US Supreme Court will hear arguments on TikTok’s future amid a looming nationwide ban set for January 19 unless Chinese parent company ByteDance divests its US assets.

The case pits national security concerns against free speech protections, with critics citing fears of Chinese government influence and data misuse.

TikTok disputes these claims, arguing the ban violates the First Amendment.

Trump, once an advocate for a TikTok ban, now opposes it, urging a negotiated resolution.

      Yes it does, our government has never been representative of the working class, and it’s not about data

      It does entirely.

      Taking control of a government that’s designed to disenfranchise you is a very different task than reforming a government that used to be responsive but was captured by hostile interests.
