On today's show...
U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson co-sponsored the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act. That law briefly made TikTok, which has a Chinese parent company, go dark this month.
Johnson shares his national security concerns behind the bill and why he says, "No one should have [TikTok] on their phones" (1:00 to 14:41).
We then get cybersecurity and legal perspectives on the law and the app (14:41 to 44:44).
Ashley Podhradsky, D.Sc., vice president for research and economic development at Dakota State University, explains just how much an app on your phone can know about you.
Neil Fulton, J.D., is the dean of the University of South Dakota School of Law. He discusses the legality of the law and why it doesn't violate First Amendment protections.
Plus, we revisit our conversation with Gabe Dannenbring, a TikTok-famous Sioux Falls teacher (44:44 to 48:25).
