TikTok is fighting an effective ban in the U.S. after the Trump administration deemed its data storage and security a national security risk because the company’s parent company, ByteDance, is based in China. TikTok said in a lawsuit against the U.S. government filed Monday that the U.S. has no evidence that the company is sharing data with the Chinese government and has prohibited TikTok from due process.
TikTok still trails Facebook, which has about 2.7 billion global monthly active users, based on its second-quarter company filing.
