The lawsuit raises significant questions about social media platforms and the extent of government authority in pursuing national security objectives.President-elect Donald Trump, who sought to ban TikTok during his previous term, has since reversed his stance. In their filing, TikTok and ByteDance pointed to shifting political dynamics, arguing that a brief delay would allow the incoming administration to reevaluate its position.
