☆ TikTok is taking the US to court to stop its ban
  + stars: | 2024-05-07 | by ( Dan Whateley | Geoff Weiss | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
TikTok is suing the US government over its new law that forces a sale or ban of the app. AdvertisementTikTok promised to fight its ban in the US — and now the social-media giant has made it official. TikTok has denied both of these claims, and the US government has yet to present evidence that either action has occurred. Legal scholars told Business Insider that well-articulated First Amendment arguments tend to prevail in court, but Congress' national-security concerns could ultimately win out. Hans, an associate clinical professor of law at Cornell Law School and associate director of its First-Amendment clinic, told BI.

☆ The TikTok divest-or-ban bill is a First Amendment disaster, but it may still stand up in court

Maybe…Earlier attempts to ban or force a sale of TikTok often haven't stood up in court. Other parties, like TikTok creators, may launch separate legal challenges in the coming weeks, as they have done in the past. AdvertisementTrump's 2020 order to ban TikTok was halted by a federal judge who said it likely exceeded executive authority. While the bill is framed around forcing US ownership of TikTok, it's likely to result in a ban, which strengthens the free-speech argument. Congress hasn't proven that an outright sale or ban of TikTok is the only way to protect national-security interests.

☆ America's best bet for banning TikTok would have terrible side effects
  + stars: | 2023-04-19 | by ( Paayal Zaveri | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
As talk of a TikTok ban builds, the leading legislation with bipartisan support is the RESTRICT Act. Here's why the RESTRICT Act has some people so worried — and what the experts say might be a better approach. The type of data TikTok collects is similar to what Facebook or Twitter collect from its users. What would actually solve the concerns about the Chinese government getting US user data is comprehensive data privacy legislation, he and other experts said. "What we're saying is that if you're concerned about the Chinese government getting user data from TikTok," Greene said.
☆ Wall Street says TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew had a 'disaster' day in Congress — but the internet is loving him

On Thursday, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew appeared before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. Wall Street slammed Chew's testimony, dubbing it a "disaster moment" for TikTok. The video has over 1.2 million views, over 215,000 likes, and a range of comments expressing their approval for Chew. Two days before the Congressional hearing, TikTok's official account shared a rare video of Chew casually introducing himself to people. In the video, Chew gave context about the hearing and asked viewers to tell him what they enjoyed about the app.
☆ The TikTok CEO's day in Congress was a 'disaster' that means the app will still likely get banned or sold, Wall Street says

TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew testified in front of US Congress, amid calls for a forced sale or ban. But after hours of grilling, the testimony likely had the opposite effect. A sale or ban of TikTok is still likelyWithout a radical shift in the conversation, the status quo is upheld. Which means that the same question is now being asked: Is TikTok more likely to be forced to sell, or will it be banned outright? "It's very possible that Congress advances these bills and, and passes them, but those bills won't ban TikTok," he said.

☆ Elon Musk's trove of private text messages is a bad look for him — and another win for Twitter, experts say
  + stars: | 2022-09-30 | by ( Grace Kay | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Hundreds of Elon Musk's texts could work against him in his court battle with Twitter, experts say. The messages appear to show Musk was aware of issues with bots ahead of offering to buy the company. The hundreds of texts between Musk and some of Silicon Valley's most powerful players offer fresh insight into Musk's plans for Twitter. But Musk's private texts appear to tell a story that is "in tension with his lead argument," Schettenhelm told Insider. "Purging fake users will make the numbers look terrible, so restructuring should be done as a private company," he texted Taylor, according to the cache of documents released Thursday.
☆ Elon Musk takes another loss in Twitter battle as his request to delay trial is denied — but judge says he can add whistleblower allegations to his suit
  + stars: | 2022-09-07 | by ( Grace Kay | Kali Hays | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Twitter has already seen negative effects on its business during the case so far, the judge said. Musk's team cannot do any kind of extensive additional discovery that will delay the case, with the judge only allowing "incremental" and "targeted" requests for more document production from Twitter. She rejected the billionaire's request to delay the trial, his second attempt to do so, reiterating that any further delay poses an outsized risk to Twitter as a business. "I am convinced that even four weeks' delay would risk further harm to Twitter too great to justify." While Zatko's whistleblower claims mainly revolve around security issues at Twitter, Musk seized on them to prove his allegations of fraud.
