Overview
The Supreme Court is currently deliberating TikTok's challenge against a law requiring its sale from Chinese parent ByteDance due to national security concerns. Should the law be upheld, TikTok could face a ban starting January 19. Oral arguments reflected skepticism towards TikTok's free speech claims and discussed alternatives, including an extension allowing negotiation for a U.S. buyer. President-elect Trump's involvement, including a potential delay, has emerged as a possibility. The decision could have profound economic implications for TikTok's 170 million American users.
