Prof. Alan Rozenshtein Quoted in New York Times About Additional Reprieve From TikTok Being Banned

Professor Alan Rozenshtein was quoted in the New York Times about the president planning to sign another executive order this week that would give TikTok more time to change its ownership structure. It would extend the deadline for when the popular video app must be separated from its Chinese owner, ByteDance, or face a ban in the United States, its third reprieve this year. Regarding not following the law that bans the app, Prof. Rozenshtein said, “This is just a wild situation that we’re in — the president has essentially nullified a law because he doesn’t like it. What’s crazier is the U.S. companies are going along with it. Since they’ve gone along with it so far, they may as well keep going along with it.”
