Tik Tok has now responded to a legal move by the state of Montana in federal court. In federal court documents, the social media app claims that the state violated its First Amendment rights.
“We are challenging Montana’s unconstitutional TikTok ban to protect our business and the hundreds of thousands of TikTok users in Montana,” a spokesperson for the company said after the suit was filed. “We believe our legal challenge will prevail based on an exceedingly strong set of precedents and facts.”
