Leader’s Lunchtime Roundtable: TikTok Around the Clock (Hybrid)

Bring your lunch and join Leader Dr. Nori Rost and members for an engaging round-table discussion on the issues of the day and recommended readings.

The FCC wants to ban this China’s based app over concerns about how US user data is used. The state of Montana has already banned it; that is being challenged in court. What are the limits of government control over foreign based apps?
