DOJ Urges Supreme Court To Reject Trump Request To Delay Tiktok Ban Law
DOJ said in its filing that Trump's request could only be granted if ByteDance had established it was likely to succeed on the merits but the company had not done so.
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) asked the Supreme Court late on Jan 3 to reject President-elect Donald Trump's request to delay implementation of a law that would ban popular social media app TikTok or force its sale by Jan 19.
美国司法部(DOJ)在1月3日晚上要求最高法院驳回当选总统特朗普请求推迟实施一项法律，该法律将禁止流行的社交媒体应用TikTok或在1月19日前迫使其出售。
Last week, Trump filed a legal brief arguing he should have time after taking office on Jan 20 to pursue a "political resolution" to the issue. The court is set to hear arguments in the case on Jan 10.
上周，特朗普提交了一份法律文件，主张他在1月20日就职后需有时间追求对该问题的“政治解决”。法院定于1月10日对此案进行听证。
The law, passed in April, requires TikTok's Chinese owner, ByteDance Ltd, to divest the platform's US assets or face a ban. TikTok did not immediately comment.
该法律于4月通过，要求TikTok的中国母公司字节跳动(临时代码)剥离该平台在美国的资产，否则将面临禁令。TikTok没有立即发表评论。
DOJ said in its filing that Trump's request could only be granted if ByteDance had established it was likely to succeed on the merits but the company had not done so.
司法部在其申请中表示，特朗普的请求只有在字节跳动(临时代码)已建立其在实质上可能成功的情况下才能获准，但该公司并未做到这一点。
TikTok on Jan 3 urged the Supreme Court to block the law on free-speech grounds under the First Amendment of the US Constitution. It said Congress had not sought to ban Chinese-owned apps like Shein or Temu, which strongly suggests "it targeted TikTok for its social-media content, not its data".
TikTok在1月3日敦促最高法院以美国宪法第一修正案的言论自由为依据阻止该法律。它指出国会并未寻求禁止像Shein或Temu这样的中国拥有的应用，这强烈暗示“该法律将TikTok作为其社交媒体内容而非数据进行针对”。
If the court does not block the law by Jan 19, new downloads of TikTok on Apple or Google stores would be banned but existing users could continue to access the app. Services would degrade over time and eventually stop working as companies will be barred from providing support.
如果法院在1月19日前不阻止该法律，TikTok在苹果或谷歌商店的新下载将被禁止，但现有用户仍可以继续访问该应用。服务将随着时间的推移而退化，最终停止工作，因为公司将被禁止提供压力位。
Biden could extend the deadline by 90 days if he certifies ByteDance is making substantial progress toward a divestiture.
如果拜登认证字节跳动(临时代码)在剥离方面取得实质性进展，他可能会将截止日期延长90天。
Trump's support for TikTok is a reversal from 2020, when he tried to block the app in the US and force its sale to American companies because of its Chinese ownership.
特朗普对TikTok的支持与2020年形成了对比，当时他试图在美国封禁该应用，并迫使其出售给美国公司，因为它的所有权在中国。
