The Supreme Court of the United States has rejected the appeal made by the Chinese company against the law related to the banning of the popular social media platform TikTok.

According to the news of the British media BBC, the United States Supreme Court judge panel gave a unanimous verdict on the banning of TikTok.

In the ruling, the court said, collecting and reviewing user data is a common practice of app companies in the digital age. But the degree to which TikTok does so and the risk of being controlled by foreign adversaries justifies the government's differential treatment of the company for reasons of national security.

US lawmakers passed a law in April last year. It is said that the app will be banned from January 19, 2025. However, if they cut ties with the Chinese parent company, they will have the opportunity to operate in the United States.

TikTok approached the Supreme Court against this decision.

However, the court unanimously ruled in favor of the ban.

US imposes new restrictions on AI chip exports

Image: Semiconductors US President has imposed new restrictions on chips used in artificial intelligence (AI). As a result, it became more difficult for hostile countries including China and Russia to get advanced technology. Earlier, the US Department of Commerce imposed restrictions on the sale of two dozen semiconductor materials to China. Along with this, the sale of US technology to various Chinese companies has also been banned. New restrictions have been added this time. New regulations announced on Monday tighten controls on the export of AI chips. If this chip is to be exported or re-exported or supplied to any country, additional approval is required. However, this policy will be relaxed for friendly countries. The U.S. believes that if U.S.-made semiconductors fall into China's hands, China can use them to develop new weapons and artificial intelligence systems. Source: AFP
