Is banning TikTok unconstitutional? US Supreme Court to answer just days before pending TikTok ban

TikTok isn’t giving up the fight to stay in the US – the Supreme Court said that it will hear the case on January 10, just days before the app faces a ban in the US. While the Supreme Court agreed to take the case, it didn’t make a move to pause or suspend the January 19 deadline requiring ByteDance to sell the TikTok app or be removed from app stores in the US.

According to NBC News, the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case just days after ByteDance appealed the court's earlier decision. The hearing is scheduled to begin on January 10, when the Supreme court will decide whether or not the legislation banning the app violates the constitution and free speech rights.
