TikTok and ByteDance sue US federal government.
TikTok and parent company ByteDance filed a lawsuit against the US federal government, challenging a law that could force them to sell the popular video-sharing app or face a nationwide ban.

The companies argue that the law is unnecessary and based on speculation, denying any possibility of sharing user data with the Chinese government.
