TikTok coming off U.S. House cell phones amid multilayered legal battle
SUMMARY: TikTok will soon be banned from federal government-issued phones due to concerns over personal security and data privacy. Members of the U.S. House of Representatives are required to delete the app by Thursday. Amidst ongoing legal battles regarding its operations in the U.S., TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, faces legislative mandates to sell the app by January 2025 to continue operating. Additionally, content creators, including rapper Topher Townsend, have filed lawsuits against the U.S. government, claiming the ban infringes on their First Amendment rights. Recent accusations against TikTok include violations related to children’s privacy laws, which the company denies.
