“We challenge Montana’s unconstitutional Tiktok ban to protect our operations and hundreds of thousands of Tiktok users in Montana,” TikTok wrote on Twitter.
“We believe that our legal challenge will prevail based on an extremely strong set of precursors and facts.”
Montana became the first US state To block the video sharing app, when Republican governor Greg Gianforte signed a law proposal on Wednesday.
The new rule prohibits app stores from offering the video sharing app from January 1, 2024 and prevents TikTok from acting as a company in the state.
For each day, the social media platform is still available, app providers would have to pay a fine of $ 10,000. Users do not have a fine and those who already have the app on their own device are not affected.
Five Tiktok -Creators living in the state submitted a similar trial hours after the bill was signed.
Tiktok is owned by the Chinese company and has already been banned on government -released units in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, in the middle of cyber security problems.
The app has more than one billion users all over the world and is widely used in the US and Europe, which drives fear that Chinese authorities and secret services may use the app to collect information from users or to disseminate influence.
The company has rejected the charges.
