TikTok is reportedly planning to disable its app for users in the United States on Sunday, coinciding with the potential enforcement of a federal ban on the platform, as reported by The Information on Tuesday, unless the Supreme Court intervenes to prevent it.

Should TikTok proceed with this shutdown for all U.S. users, it would diverge from the legal stipulations, which only prohibit new downloads of the app from Apple or Google app stores, allowing current users to continue accessing the app for a limited period.

According to the report, users attempting to access the app will encounter a notification directing them to a website that provides details regarding the ban. 

Additionally, TikTok intends to offer users the ability to download their data, enabling them to retain a record of their personal information, as noted in the report.

Neither TikTok nor its parent company, ByteDance, responded immediately to Reuters' request for comments.

In April of the previous year, President Joe Biden enacted a law mandating ByteDance to divest its U.S. assets by January 19, 2025, or face a nationwide prohibition.

The companies have requested, at a minimum, a postponement of the law's enforcement, arguing that it infringes upon the First Amendment rights protecting free speech.

In a recent court filing, TikTok indicated that it anticipates that approximately one-third of the 170 million Americans using its app would cease to access the platform if the ban were to persist for a month.
