Original review summary

The review says Lebanon’s Ministry of Telecommunications cannot independently decide to block TikTok: under the cited law, blocking requires a judicial decision, which the ministry would implement. It adds that a blanket ban on the platform would be unlawful absent exceptional circumstances, and that users could still access TikTok through a VPN unless VPNs were also blocked.[S1]
