Oregon will join the more than 30 states that have banned the social video app TikTok from state government devices over security concerns.
House Bill 3127, awaiting Gov. Tina Kotek’s signature, bans not only TikTok but also apps from several other companies based in China, including the payment platform Alipay and the messaging app WeChat. It also specifically prohibits software from the Russian antivirus and cybersecurity company Kaspersky Lab.
