Jan 21 (Reuters) – Canada’s federal court has ‍overturned a government order to close TikTok’s Canadian operations, ‌allowing it ‌to continue to operate at least for now, Politico ​reported on Wednesday.

In ‍2024, Canada ​ordered TikTok’s ​business in ‍the country to be dissolved, citing national-security risks, but ‍added the government was not blocking ‍Canadians’ ‍access to ​the short-video ​app ⁠or their ‌ability to create content.
