Tiktok is in danger in the US

The US Supreme Court disagrees with Tiktok.

But a majority of the judges seem to be leaning towards banning Tiktok in the country from January 19.

This is unless the popular platform changes hands.

Tiktok’s connections to China are deemed to pose a security risk. Congress established that last year when it adopted the proposal for a ban.

Today, the issue was discussed in the Supreme Court.

The judges’ attitude indicates that they will uphold the law, according to CNN.

Tiktok’s lawyers as well as several free speech groups in the US claim that the law is a major restriction of freedom of speech.

Young man dead after accident on E20

A man in his 20s died after a traffic accident on the E20 near Svista in Eskilstuna.

They don’t know who hit the man. The police have started a preliminary investigation into causing the death of another, gross negligence in traffic and gross contamination from a traffic accident.

– We have held a number of interviews at the scene, but we currently have no suspects.

The police are now investigating whether there are cameras that may have captured parts of the sequence of events.

E20 has been closed at the scene of the accident but reopened at 8pm.
