This delays the TikTok ban again. A January order first paused it. Two later orders extended that pause. This one runs to December 16, 2025. Justice must not enforce the law in that time. It must not fine anyone for breaking it. Hosting the app is covered. So is offering it for download. So is updating it.
Sec. 2. General Provisions

This is the closing clause that nearly every order carries. It says the order does not change what the law already allows. It also says no one can sue to enforce it.
