Daily News 2023.4.18---MONTANA COULD BECOME THE FIRST US STATE TO BAN TIKTOK
The state's GOP controlled House of Representatives voted in favor of the bill on Friday, and if the goernor signs it, TikTok would be outlawed in the state as of January of 2024.
The bill was spurred by fears the app's ownership could be collecting Americans' data on behalf of the Chinese government.
Under the law, app stores would no longer be allowed to offer TikTok for download, and would face fines of ten thousand dollars a day if they do!
One thing to note here is that one of the backers of the bill admitted that trying to enforce this ban might be impossible because
blocking downloads of apps in any one individual state isn't feasible.
That aside, is Montana's government going too far, or is the risk from TikTok's Chinese parent company a good enough reason?
