the social media platform is challenging a us law signed by presidentjoe biden earlier this year. it aims to compel its chinese parent company, bytedance, to sell the company orface a ban. tiktok claims it has more than 170 million users in the us. our north america technology correspondent lily jamali has more from san francisco. they did so with a rare bipartisan support. lawmakers said tiktok should share the data of its 170 million american users with the chinese government and open the door to chinese propaganda. tiktok has denied those allegations. the company has called the measure extraordinary intrusion on free speech rights. it will make its case before a 3—judge appeals

court panel on monday and will bejoined by court panel on monday and will be joined by creators who make their living on the platform. department ofjustice lawyers will follow with the government's view. all the parties in the case have asked for a ruling by mid december, that would give the us supreme court the opportunity to take the case up before any potential band could take effect. joining me now is grace nelson, analyst at assembly research. grace, welcome to the programme. just tell us more about what will happen today. sure. today we are expected to see two different versions of a case by out about the law at the centre of this disagreement. the us government will be for the first time she giving us a look into those national security concerns under which they are proposing to ban tiktok or the divestments of bytedance from the app. however, from their perspective, we will see them try their case on the grounds of first amendment or

free—speech protections alleging that the us government here is infringing on the rights and liberties of not only the app on the platform which could have great implications for how the us government can go forward and regulate social media and other contacts, also for approximately 170 million americans as you heard you use the app. americans as you heard you use the a- -. ~' , americans as you heard you use theau. ~ ,., ,, ., the app. tiktok is appealing for a speedy _ the app. tiktok is appealing for a speedy process. - the app. tiktok is appealing for a speedy process. how l the app. tiktok is appealing i for a speedy process. how long do you think this will take? given that both parties have requested this case be heard by the supreme court no later than december six, that ironically any ban from the lobby upheld go into effect on 19january, 2025, which is one day before a new president will be inaugurated, i would fully expect that not only a quick appeal be filed after the ruling from the hearing today, but also that appeal likely to be picked up by the supreme court before that sixth of december asking date. in court before that sixth of december asking date. in the meantime. — december asking date. in the meantime, there _ december asking date. in the meantime, there is _ december asking date. in the l

likelihood of no change. so those borrowers who are looking to remortgage may have to wait weeks rather than days for another interest rate cuts, but they are on the horizon. qm. they are on the horizon. 0k, alwa s they are on the horizon. 0k, always lovely _ they are on the horizon. 0k, always lovely to _ they are on the horizon. 0k, always lovely to see - they are on the horizon. 0k, always lovely to see you. - they are on the horizon. 0k, always lovely to see you. have always lovely to see you. have a great week. we will see you again soon. now, let's head to india where the anti—trust watchdog has okayed a deal between one of asia's richest men, mukesh ambani and the walt disney company. the two are coming together to form india's biggest entertainment entity. arunoday mukharji looks at what this $8.5 billion deal means for the country. music plays from india's top—rated tv series to a highly cricket tournament, or even the english premier league. they are all now going to be on one platform. a merger that could disrupt india's media landscape. across smartphones and television platforms,

the combined entertainment powerhouse of reliance and the walt disney company giving 750 million viewers access to over 120 channels and global content from over 30,000 disney assets. industry experts say while it gives the new entity heft to take on the big tech global heavyweights that have been expanding in the country, it could also spark some concerns for the existing 0tt players jostling in india's market. then they drop prices, which is the big thing. that is the strategy over the years. give stuff at throw—away prices and totally destroy value for the other guy, and you build up your business. the merged entity's biggest cash cow broadcasting rights to stream's india's most popular sport. in a a cricket crazy nation, reliance and disney together now hold almost 80% of the highly lucrative

sport streaming market. it's exactly what made india's competition commission sit up and scrutinise the deal says anti—trust lawyer raoul ray. the two of them together had shelled out roughly us$6 billion, and once you secure the rights to broadcast, you would like to sell those rights to advertisers. they retained the rights for the next couple of years and therefore the regulators' concern would be about what would they be able to do for the next couple of years. experts also say the watchdog would have needed assurances that the companies don't use their leading market position to squeeze advertisers. while the companies are yet to disclose what voluntary modifications they will make to this merger deal, they have pledged to not discriminate against advertisers or raise prices, something that would have helped address anti—competitive

concerns and ensure that the indian market remains free from a scenario where there is too much power concentrated in the hands of one entity. arunoday mukharji, bbc news, delhi. could the eu's schengen agreement and the free movement of people and goods be under threat? from today, germany will be implementing new border checks that will remain for the next six months as the country attempts to curb the influx of illegal migrants. polish prime minister donald tusk has denounced the decision as "unacceptable" and germany has been accused of undermining the schengen agreement and the free movements of goods. i'm joined by dr rebecca harding, independent economist. good morning to you. is this just germany trying to get control of its borders or is this undermining the schengen agreement? 50. this undermining the schengen agreement?— this undermining the schengen aureement? , ., , agreement? so, germany has been accused of undermining _ agreement? so, germany has been accused of undermining the - accused of undermining the schengen agreement before, back

in 2015, and it opened its borders, actually we need to put this in perspective. since 2015 have been 404 different border closures across the whole region, so germany is not alone. the open —— problem generally has is a huge issue with its domestic politics, the economy and obviously with migration and terrorism as well. germany has tried very hard to put this within a legal framework within eu law, and it is only for six months, so it is only for six months, so it is a temporary arrangement so that german politics can settle down a little bit, to some extent it is seen as an appeasement of the right wing in germany, but it is also they are stressing very much indeed that it are stressing very much indeed thatitis are stressing very much indeed that it is a temporary solution, so they are saying it won't undermine chang. oliver short isiust — won't undermine chang. oliver short isjust going _ won't undermine chang. oliver short isjust going to _ won't undermine chang. oliver short isjust going to ride - won't undermine chang. oliver short isjust going to ride the l short is just going to ride the wave of the political backlash of other countries in europe, as you say, to try and keep people on board within germany

created a really toxic environment within europe. migration has been toxic since 2015 so this isn't a new problem stop he has been there for a very long while. what is done is because it was done unilaterally and the poles are saying, the french are saying this was done without consultation, so it'sjust disrupted that unity across europe so it has added to the tensions of europe, and that is a risk i think that it has just been done in a way that maybe was a bit clumsy. and that threatens schengen because it fragments alliances, the very fragile already around migration. thank you very much. some economic data came out of china on the weekend. industrial production

harris and donald trump. you have a situation where you have irreconcilable differences. there is a possibility that the loser, you know, particularly if it's the republicans and donald trump, might not accept losing, and you have a situation where it's a win at all costs by both the left and the right. so neither side can compromise. so you have a dynamic which is a particularly risky dynamic. there will be two things to pay attention to. first, can you have an orderly transition? we will find that out quickly, and then after the orderly transition, you have

a dysfunctional government, and which there is going to be very hard playing against each other that will be challenging. i think you are seeing now and you're going to see more of it people moving to different states, because the states represent different living standards, different approaches, and so i think you are seeing more of a fragmentation, a serious conflict between the parties. that's affecting government. just spell that out. you're talking about republicans who live in new york moving to, i don't know, texas, and democrats who live in new york moving to new york, sort of migration within the united states? yes, there are a lot of people in states like california and new york and newjersey and so on who will go to states like florida and texas, partially because of taxes,

but partially because of values. and would you make a parallel with any other period in history in your studies, what does this remind you of, where we are now? this reminds me of the 1930 to �*45 period in which there was an economic problem, economic crisis and then four democracies chose to be dictatorships — germany, italy, spain and japan had parliamentary systems, and they broke down in terms of internal conflict between the hard left, the hard right, communism and fascism. we are today seeing modern—day versions of some of these things. that 33 period onward led to a world war. that a positive ability that possibility today?

property index down by more than 3%. just to mention of cause in china in particular things are really tricky right now, the airport in shanghai is shut, a typhoon has been ripping through there, causing quite a lot of chaos. that is the latest here on bbc news. i will see you soon. hello, there. well, we've seen plenty of sunshine throughout the weekend, also a few outbreaks of rain for some, but that is the last of the wet weather that we'll see for quite a few days yet, because for much of next week, it's looking dry and settled. high pressure dominant, more sunshine and it will feel warmer by day and milder by night, too. just watch out for the possibility of some rather murky mornings, with mist and fog patches developing, especially where the winds stay light. now, here's that area of high pressure building in from the south west. it's centred more or less right over the uk, as we head through monday, deflecting these low—pressure systems out towards the north and the west.

now, as we head into monday morning itself, there'll be some mist and fog, particularly for north—west england, southwest scotland, perhaps. it's milder towards the south with that legacy of cloud for a while, coolest out towards the north and the east, but a whole range of temperatures as we start off the day. now, the mist and the fog will readily lift and clear as we head through the morning, and there'll be plenty of sunshine around, lots of blue skies. high cloud turning the sunshine hazy at times. more of a breeze out towards the far south and the east. we could see one or two very isolated showers for kent, but it's still unlikely. more cloud for northern ireland later on through the day, and temperatures in the high teens, the low 20s. 21 celsius for parts of central and eastern england — it's close to the seasonal average. and then, on tuesday, well, we could see any mist and fog, really, across parts of yorkshire, lincolnshire, down through the east midlands, more of a northeasterly wind for east anglia, southeast england here, and a bit more in the way of cloud for northwest scotland, but with a southwesterly wind blowing, then, for parts

of the moray firth, the highlands, temperatures could reach 21 or 22 celsius, so certainly feeling warm here. wednesday and thursday, our area of high pressure starts to meander further northwards and eastwards. it's still dry towards the north. towards the south, we'll see more of an easterly breeze take hold, but it is going to be feeling warm here. again, there's a more noticeable northeasterly blow. windy through the channel, perhaps, but 24 celsius in central southern england and southeast england, and again 21 or 22 celsius for those sheltered areas of scotland. so here's the outlook for our capital cities, then, as we head through the week. there's a lot of sunshine around. it's dry and it's settled. we could potentially see a few showers break out on friday. bye— bye.
