Prohibits download or use of TikTok application on any State-issued electronic device.
This bill prohibits all New Jersey state employees, agencies, and state contractors from downloading or using the TikTok app or visiting its website on any state-issued or state-leased electronic device (including phones, computers, and tablets). It directly affects state workers and contractors who use government-provided technology, with exceptions for law enforcement using TikTok during investigations under guidelines set by the Attorney General. The bill aims to address security concerns raised by the FBI regarding TikTok's data collection practices and potential access by Chinese entities under Chinese law. The prohibition takes immediate effect upon enactment.
