Montana Becomes First State to Ban TikTok, Facing Legal Challenges from Content Creators and Criticism from ACLU

Montana has become the first state to ban the popular video sharing app TikTok, with Republican Governor Greg Gianforte signing the bill into law on May 17th. Five TikTok content creators have filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn the ban, arguing it is an unconstitutional violation of free speech rights. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has also criticized the ban, arguing it will trample on the free speech of hundreds of thousands of Montanans. The legal challenge to the ban is ongoing, with the ban set to take effect in January 2024.
