The US Federal Court of Appeal, to which the Chinese company appealed, also upheld the relevant law.
The head of the US House Committee on China has asked Google and Apple to be ready to remove TikTok from US app stores by January 19, 2025, without delay. It was reported by Reuters.
TikTok asked a US appeals court to halt the law so the US Supreme Court could review it A day after the planned block, on January 20, the inauguration of newly elected US President Donald Trump, which opposed in blocking the application.
However, a US federal appeals court also upheld a law requiring Chinese company ByteDance to sell TikTok in the US or face a ban.
The Department of Justice said that if the ban goes into effect on January 19, it “will not directly prohibit further use of TikTok” by Apple or Google users who have already downloaded the app.
However, the ban on providing support will ultimately invalidate TikTok.
We remind you that the company challenged the document adopted by Congress and signed by President Joe Biden, which requires it to sell TikTok. However, ByteDance lost a legal appeal and must sell the app.
The US Court of Appeals denied TikTok’s request for reprieve
