President-elect Trump asks Supreme Court to postpone implementation of TikTok ban law
President-elect Donald Trump has sent a brief to the Supreme Court requesting a delay to the implementation of the so-called 'TikTok Ban Act,' which is scheduled to come into force on January 19, 2025. During his first term as president from 2017 to 2020, Trump was in favor of banning TikTok, but has since changed his stance to allow it.

Ahead of the enforcement of the 'Protecting Americans from National Security Threats Posed by Applications Controlled by Foreign Adversaries Act,' which is said to be a de facto 'TikTok ban law,' U.S. President-elect Donald Trump submitted an 18-page brief to the Supreme Court requesting that the enforcement of the law be delayed and that the Trump Administration, which will be inaugurated on January 20, 2025, be allowed to 'resolve the issue through negotiation.'
On the other hand, President Biden's side is strongly urging the TikTok ban to be maintained.
The 'Protecting Americans from National Security Threats Posed by Applications Controlled by Foreign Adversaries Act' is, as its name suggests, a law aimed at eliminating apps managed or controlled by companies in hostile countries. The bill was passed by the House of Representatives and signed by President Biden in just four days, which was an unusually fast passage.

With the passage of the TikTok Ban Act, TikTok, whose parent company is Chinese company ByteDance, will be required to either cease service in the United States or sell its business by January 19, 2025, when the law comes into effect.
TikTok responded strongly by filing a First Amendment challenge to the law, which guarantees freedom of speech. The challenge was rejected by the Court of Appeals, but TikTok appealed to the Supreme Court, which decided to hear the challenge.
A boost for TikTok was Donald Trump's victory in the November 2024 presidential election.
During his first term as president from 2017 to 2020, Trump took a position of wanting to ban TikTok, but has since changed his policy and become a TikTok tolerant party. In particular, after experiencing billions of video views on TikTok during the presidential election held in November 2024, Trump attended an annual gathering held by a conservative group on December 22, 2024, and said, 'The number of views on TikTok was record-breaking,' and 'I thought, 'I have to keep it on for a while longer.''
