The Supreme Court will hear arguments on Jan. 10 over a law requiring TikTok to break ties with its Chinese -based parent company, ByteDance .

At the heart of the case is whether the law violates the First Amendment with TikTok and its creator allies arguing that it does.

The U.S. government, which sees the platform as a national security risk, says it does not.

If the Supreme Court does not delay the ban, app stores and internet service providers would be required to stop providing service to TikTok by Jan. 19 .

Creators should continue to post regularly on TikTok , which has 170 million month U.S. users and remains highly effective in reaching audiences.

The Justice Department has said the ban will eventually make the app "unworkable".
