  1. To little to late… all of these devices have been made out of country since I was born… time to focus on home

  2. This has nothing to do with First amendment rights

  3. My respect for Montana has sky rocketed

  4. Did you know that Tiktok in China is not the same than Tiktok in the rest of the world? Technically Chinese Tiktok is educational while Western Tiktok is crap.

    Why there aren’t many transgender people in China? Why there aren’t many lgbt couples? Why we don’t see many rainbow flags? Why feminist aren’t destroying monuments and public places? Why aren’t Chinese men being persecuted for being a man?

  5. You people are a joke. Come tell me or try and force me to look or watch what I want.

  6. The domino effect has becoming in effect.

  7. Won’t work, is a violation of the First Amendment, and is purely based on theoretical and amorphous “threats.”

  8. Montana is just another sick state taking American people's freedoms and rights away.

  9. I’m so happy of that

  10. GMS trans activists in league with TikTok algorithm

  11. Let's ban all social media. It has created a generation of mentally ill zoomers

  12. I'm gonna use a VPN to bypass the ban

  13. Thank god I don't live in mt.

  14. Montana is doing this to silence GenZ voters. The GOP knows they are hanging onto power by a thread. Most Montanans know this is nothing more than an expensive power play and is unenforceable.

  15. I always said social media in general would come back to hurt the United States. There’s to much information people can get through social media. Facebook TikTok ect… people put to much of their business on social media. And other countries are having a field day getting information and that’s not the only problem. Every rapist trafficking social media is there play ground to search for young girls and boys. Social media started out as a good thing. But Lucifer has his hands all up in there. And now everybody’s playing with danger they should shut it all down

  16. Look at all these protestors paid for by China.

  17. This not why they banning it. Wake up ppl 👁️ u can learn more on tiktok than your own school teachers.

  18. Wow, tense! To BAN or not to BAN. Kick a field goal or go for two. 😅

  19. Hope other states follow suit.

  20. Security issues from our own military leaking info…now TikTok is the problem?😂

  21. The Federal Government Should ban this Tic Tok in all States

  22. Instead of focusing on outside threats, why not deal with the threat’s already INSIDE the U.S. like the mass shootings killing innocent lives!

  23. Here we go. They are taking our constitutional rights away. And you idiots are letting them.

  24. TikTok users enjoy giving up there personal information as long as they get attention and likes

  25. You are on the right path, comrades! I am waiting for news about the restoration of the draft, punishments for criticizing government and a ban on protests! Everything is like in our country! From Russia with love. 🇺🇸 🇷🇺

  26. Suddenly the normal IQ of Montanan's has quadruple since TikTok was banned

  27. But pornography is still legal?

  28. Man! CCP really know how to bullshit their way in life, first amendment rights? They assert a principle they don’t believe in! Hey China 🖕🏼 you

  29. “Creator economy.” Lol

  30. Get tiktok out of here to save today’s society

  31. Mona Kosar Abdi is a 10 <3

  32. As a more progressive person i couldnt agree more. I hope all social is killed off. Social media is a big part of what is wrong in this country!!

  33. The people who live in Montana are using Tik-Tok needs to protist under their First Amendment rights

  34. ban Russia and China (and north Korea) from the world

  35. I was an avid user of tiktok, but deleted it after finding out they log your passwords when you use their in-app browser to log into places.

    They record everything
    How long you watch certain videos
    what you like
    how you touch your phone
    how you hold your phone
    everything when you open the camera

    This should absolutely be a bi-partisan effort, and should stretch out to restricting data collection for all companies.
