TikTok confirmed Saturday that it plans to sue the Trump administration over an executive order that would effectively ban the app in the US, adding that it expects the legal action to happen this week. „To ensure that the rule of law is not discarded and that our company and users are treated fairly, we have no choice but to challenge the Executive Order through the judicial system,“ TikTok said in an emailed statement. Citing fears over national security, Trump issued an executive order Aug.6 saying transactions with TikTok parent company ByteDance — a Chinese firm — or its subsidiaries would be prohibited.
