In the latest twist of the never-ending saga, the US government is appealing an injunction against its𝓰 TikToꦐk ban.

Meanwhile, China signaled it would oppose a deal it felt was unfavorable to the country’s image.

Meanwhile, TikTok was left in as it tried to wo𒈔rk out a deal with the US government as the deadline approached. The company won an , with at least one judge even questionin𝓀g if the ban was legally viable.
