TikTok files emergency injunction in latest bid to stall US ban


The ban, which US President-elect Donald Trump has signalled an intention to overturn, is due to come into effect in early 2025.

“The public interest favours providing sufficient time for the Supreme Court to conduct an orderly review process, and for the incoming Administration to evaluate this exceptionally important case,” TikTok and parent company ByteDance wrote in the filing. US President-elect Donald Trump has previously signaled that he would “save TikTok” from a ban. The latest filing comes after a federal appeals court upheld the ban Friday, after TikTok unsuccessfully argued the law was unconstitutional for its impact on freedom of speech.
