[Montana is set to become the first US state to ban
Chinese-owned media giant TikTok from personal devices. Governor Greg Gianforte signed the ban into law on Wednesday. It is due to take effect on 1 January.] To stop TikTok stealing data. [The video-sharing platform says the ban "infringes on the First Amendment rights of the people of Montana". TikTok has come under scrutiny from authorities around the world over concerns that data could be passed to the Chinese government. Mr Gianforte, a Republican, told lawmakers that a wider ban would further "our shared priority to protect Montanans from Chinese Communist Party surveillance." TikTok said in a statement that it was used by "hundreds of thousands of people" in Montana.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-65630201 |
