The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on Friday regarding the law that could potentially ban TikTok in the United States. The popular social media platform has challenged the law, arguing that it violates the First Amendment. The U.S. government has raised concerns about TikTok's Chinese ownership, citing national security risks.

The law, which is scheduled to take effect on January 19, requires TikTok to be sold in order to continue operating in the country. Both Republican and Democratic-appointed judges on an appeals court have upheld the law, leading to the case being brought before the Supreme Court.
