tiktok will face challenges when proving its case in court. that's according to kirk mcgill, a lawyer at hall estill. one of the primary difficulties that tiktok is going to have is that the principal first amendment issue is the issue of its users�* first amendment rights, as opposed to the company's first amendment rights. and because the statute doesn't seek to ban tiktok, it seeks to require its divestment, that won't ultimately affect the end—users, and they're the ones whose rights are most at issue. and for when it comes to the us government, they need to prove in court that there are national security issues — is that the case? that's precisely right. the difficulty is, the united states government has to balance showing its hand in court in order to beat tiktok but revealing, potentially, its intelligence sources and methods abroad, which may have greater value, and that's always been the difficulty for the government when it comes to national security cases, is the balance between freedom and security and between disclosing its
