TikTok disputes Montana’s allegations the Chinese government could access info about the app’s users.
Last week, Montana became the first U.S. state to ban TikTok over allegations the Chinese government can use the app for intelligence-gathering operations.
TikTok filed a lawsuit Monday in the United States District Court for the District of Montana to try and reverse the ban. TikTok disputes Montana's allegations the Chinese government"could access data about TikTok users, and that TikTok exposes minors to harmful online content," the lawsuit said. TikTok has filed a federal lawsuit against Montana in response to a recently passed state law that would ban the popular video service in the state.Monday in the United States District Court for the District of Montana, is intended to"prevent the state of Montana from unlawfully banning TikTok," lawyers for the app's parent company, ByteDance wrote.
"Montana's ban abridges freedom of speech in violation of the First Amendment, violates the U.S. Constitution in multiple other respects and is preempted by federal law," the attorneys said.
