TikTok has asked the Supreme Court to block a federal law that would ban the platform in the U.S. unless its parent company sells it. The company and ByteDance are urging the justices to act before the Jan. 19 deadline, citing potential user and revenue losses. The case raises free speech and national security issues, with the court likely to consider the emergency appeal. The law, if not blocked, would take effect on Jan. 19, potentially impacting app stores and internet hosting services that support TikTok. President-elect Biden's inauguration is the day after the law's effective date.
