Montana becomes first state to ban TikTok.

Montana lawmakers have passed a bill that would ban TikTok in the state, making it the first complete ban on the Chinese-owned app in the US. The bill prohibits sales of the app and bars it from operating in Montana. TikTok has faced growing concerns from policymakers over whether its ownership by a Chinese company could create a national security risk for the United States. A TikTok spokesperson called the bill an “attempt to censor American voices” and said its constitutionality would be decided by the courts.
