Friday, March 10 at 10:00 AM ET

We hope you can join us on Friday, March 10th, 2023, as we provide an update on the U.S. government's latest efforts to restrict TikTok (Click Here for our December Update), including a review of the bipartisan RESTRICT Act introduced earlier this week and already endorsed by the White House. The legislation would empower the White House and Commerce Department to restrict communications technologies from Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela and other countries subsequently identified as posing risks to national security. Meanwhile, we await a final national security recommendation regarding TikTok from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS), including action on a TikTok proposal to insulate U.S. data and operations from any entity in China.

Can TikTok survive the intense national security scrutiny?
