Montana is poised to become the first state in the country to entirely ban TikTok after its Republican-controlled legislature passed a ban, sending it to the governor’s desk.

The Montana House voted 54-43 in favor of the legislation on Friday in response to concerns about the Chinese government potentially being able to use the app to conduct spying in the United States.

The bill, if Gov. Greg Gianforte (R) signs it, would go significantly further than bills other states have proposed — which have focused primarily on banning the app from state-owned devices only.
