Tiktok, ByteDance sue US govt for approving ‘Foreign Adversary’ Law

The US government is being sued by TikTok and ByteDance for the recently enacted “Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications” law, which is headed toward outlawing the well-known social media platform.

Recall that TikTok and its CEO had earlier stated that, should the bill become law, they will sue the US for enacting the bill, which is a known threat to the app’s ability to operate in the US.

TikTok and ByteDance have finally filed a complaint and lawsuit against the US government, which was forwarded to the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, initiating their legal battle.
