The Supreme Court on Friday was divided over the constitutionality of a federal law that would require social-media giant TikTok to shut down in the United States unless its Chinese parent company can sell it by Jan.

A pending law would pressure China-based ByteDance to sell TikTok for the social media platform to be hosted by U.S. app stores.

TikTok reportedly will shut down the app in the U.S. unless the Supreme Court halts a law banning the app unless ByteDance divests its stake.

The Supreme Court has heard arguments surrounding the potential ban of TikTok. Here's what we know before their verdict, what could happen after ban

The Supreme Court seems likely to uphold a law that would ban TikTok in the United States beginning Jan. 19 unless the popular social media program is sold by its China-based parent company.

Unless the Supreme Court intervenes, Google, Apple and internet providers won't be allowed to make TikTok available after Sunday, Jan. 19.
