Will US law banning TikTok prevail on secret government evidence?
==========

The US government seeks to ban TikTok, citing national security concerns; TikTok, used by 170 million Americans, must secure a non-Chinese buyer by January 19, 2025, or face removal; the law was supported by bipartisan legislation and passed in April; the Justice Department's filings include 'highly sensitive' information kept secret from the public and petitioners; TikTok argues the government lacks evidence of a threat and demands disclosure of classified information; the court will hear oral arguments on September 18, 2024; experts suggest the court may favor the government due to national security consensus; concerns arise over public confidence in the legal system if secret evidence is used.
