TikTok will likewise challenge its characterization by the White House as a national security danger, the sources included.

Notwithstanding, the move shows that ByteDance is trying to deploy all the lawful remedies available to its as it attempts to prevent the TikTok negotiation arrangements from turning into a fire deal.
