So does that part of the law immediately cease to be in effect? Or will the courts grant a stay until the Supreme Court rules?

Don't know. We'll have to ask a lawyer that one.

will the courts grant a stay until the Supreme Court rules My understanding, from working in law firms for the past 5 years---there's an automatic stay until the final appellate court makes it decision.

The law won't enforced until the U.S Supreme Court issues a final ruling on the law. But I think there's little doubt most of its not gonna survive. To make this legal gag on free speech constitutional, you'd have to repeal the First Amendment.
