The Supreme Court on Friday unanimously ruled in favor of upholding the federal law banning TikTok unless it's sold by its Chinese-based parent company on or before Jan. 19.

AUSTIN, Texas — The State of Texas sued TikTok and its owner, according to documents shared by the Texas attorney general Thursday. TikTok was accused of showing inappropriate content to minors, being deliberately addictive, misleading parents and failing to disclose the risks.

The lawsuit, filed in state district court in Galveston County, accuses TikTok of ignoring the health and safety of Texas minors and argues the platform “is rife with profanity, sexual content, violence, mature themes, and drug and alcohol content.”

The shutdown follows legislation passed last year requiring TikTok to sever ties with its Chinese parent company or face a U.S. ban. While the service has been restored, both Apple and Google continue to block new downloads from their app stores at this time.

TikTok's influence has been greater than its seemingly short-lived demise. The ByteDance-owned app returns after going dark over the weekend.

On Friday, the U.S. government argued that the ban of TikTok is a matter of national security, while the company's attorneys argue the ban is unconstitutional.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a second lawsuit against TikTok, accusing the company of falsely promoting their app as safe for minors.

As the threat of a TikTok ban remains uncertain in the United States, Texas influencers and creators are growing more and more concerned about losing their following and income. The Supreme Court heard arguments on Friday, January 10, on whether TikTok should be banned later this month due to concerns about its ties to China.

Chinese officials reportedly want ByteDance Ltd. to remain the owners of TikTok but is in discussion on how to work with the Trump Administration.

The U.S. is inching closer and closer to a potential TikTok ban — with the nation’s highest court upholding a law that’s set to officially cut the cord and halt new downloads off the app starting Sund

TikTok restored service to users in the United States on Sunday just hours after the popular video-sharing platform went dark in response to a federal ban, which President-elect Donald Trump said he would try to pause by executive order on his first day in office.
