TikTok's lawyers argued in court that selling the U.S. operations would infringe on free speech rights, emphasizing it would be impossible to divest as required by law.
Jacob Helberg from the U.S.-China Commission stated that TikTok's resistance to selling itself is leading towards a federal ban, suggesting divestment could resolve the issue.
The law mandating TikTok's divestment doesn't realistically allow for a commercial or legal sale within the required 270 days, creating a significant hurdle for the company.
Despite concerns about national security and potential content influence from Beijing, TikTok's future in the U.S. hinges on complex legal negotiations and government actions.
