Just hours after Montana announced a new law banning the TikTok app statewide from next year, a group of TikTok users has sued in a bid to block the ban.
A group of TikTok users has sued the state of Montana in a bid to overturn its plan to ban the app from January 1, 2024.
In documents filed with the court, the group of five TikTok users said: “Montana has no authority to enact laws advancing what it believes should be the United States’ foreign policy or its national security interests, nor may Montana ban an entire forum for communication-based on its perceptions that some speech shared through that forum, though protected by the First Amendment, is dangerous.”
U.S. authorities have long expressed concerns that TikTok’s Beijing-based owner, ByteDance, may be interfered with by the Chinese government and therefore see the app as a national security risk. A former ByteDance executive recently claimed that the Chinese Community Party “maintained supreme access” to TikTok data stored in the U.S. when he worked for the company between 2017 and 2018. Others claim the Chinese authorities could even influence the app’s algorithm to serve up pro-China content.

The law is expected to face legal challenges and become a testing ground for whether it’s possible for a TikTok-free America many national lawmakers have envisioned.
