New York: A federal judge in the US has postponed an order by the Trump Administration that banned the popular video-sharing app TikTok from American smartphone app stores from around midnight. . It is proposed to introduce a more comprehensive ban on Ticketock in November, about a week after the Presidential Elections in the US.
US District Court Judge Carl Nichols in the District of Columbia did not agree to postpone the subsequent ban. The order came during an emergency hearing on Sunday morning, with TickTalk’s lawyers arguing that a ban from app stores would violate constitutional rights and cause irreparable damage to businesses.
US President Trump banned Tiktok owned by ByteDance in China on the issue of national security. Trump alleges that China gets access to the private data of US citizens through this app. TicketTalk has over 100 million users in the United States.
