BREAKING Montana governor signs first state TikTok ban into law
Gov. Greg Gianforte signed the legislation on Wednesday, prohibiting app stores from providing access to the TikTok app within state borders. The law will also prohibit the use of social networks that share information with countries such as China and Iran. The Montana Department of Justice can now fine app stores or TikTok parent company ByteDance $10,000 a day for each violation.
To protect Montanans’ personal and private data from the Chinese Communist Party, I have banned TikTok in Montana. Industry and free speech groups slammed the bill's passage."In implementing this law, Montana ignores the U.S. Constitution, due process, and free speech by denying access to a website and apps their citizens want to use," said NetChoice Vice President and General Counsel Carl Szabo in a statement. NetChoice is a right-leaning technology think tank.
Multiple states have already passed legislation that bans the use of TikTok on federally owned devices.
