According to the Department of Justice, TikTok has access to American data, shares it with the Chinese government, and can alter app content to influence American sentiment.

There are little signs that TikTok will complete a sale before the law that mandates the company find a new, non-Chinese owner or risk being banned takes effect on Sunday.

170 million Americans may lose access to a platform they use for entertainment, news, and community, or even to run a business.

TikTok made an effort to block the ban, arguing that a ban would violate First Amendment rights and endanger the voices of millions of Americans and that the government has not yet demonstrated that such a security risk has ever occurred.
