The attorneys general of Georgia and South Carolina are among a coalition that supports banning the social media app TikTok if the Chinese government doesn't divest from the company.

The article from MSN discusses how Georgia and South Carolina's attorneys general have joined a growing movement to ban TikTok, citing concerns over national security and data privacy. This push is part of a broader scrutiny of TikTok, owned by the Chinese company ByteDance, due to fears that user data could be accessed by the Chinese government. The attorneys general are advocating for legislation that would either force ByteDance to sell TikTok to a non-Chinese entity or face a complete ban in the U.S. This initiative reflects similar actions taken by other states and the federal government, highlighting ongoing tensions between national security, privacy rights, and international business operations.
