Five TikTok users file lawsuit to block Montana ban


A group of five TikTok users, who also create content posted on the short-video app, filed suit in US District Court in Montana on Thursday seeking to block the state’s new ban on the Chinese-owned platform.

Montana Governor Greg Gianforte on Wednesday signed legislation to ban TikTok in the state, effective Jan. 1. The five users seek to block the law, which makes it unlawful for the app stores of Alphabet Inc’s Google and Apple Inc to offer TikTok within the state.
