TikTok asks for emergency pause to looming US ban

Quick Summary:

The app says the Supreme Court - and incoming Trump administration - needs more time to consider the case.

The social media company lost its appeal against the law in a decision handed down on Friday - and said afterwards it would appeal to the Supreme Court.

TikTok and ByteDance say an injunction is also justified because Donald Trump is about to replace Joe Biden as president.
