This is the best summary I could come up with:

U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy said Montana’s TikTok ban “oversteps state power” and “likely violates the First Amendment.”

As Washington continues to debate TikTok’s future, states have been acting faster, and the law in Montana was considered an important test case of whether a state-level ban of the app would survive court challenges.

National security experts say TikTok is caught in the middle of escalating geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China, as Washington grows ever more concerned about the advancement of Chinese tech, like semiconductors, and the country’s investments in artificial intelligence.

Supporters of restricting or banning TikTok in the U.S. point to Chinese national security laws that compel private companies to turn information over to Beijing authorities.

TikTok says China-based employees no longer have access to U.S. user data under a new firewall it has put in place with the help of Texas-based software giant Oracle.

The planned, dubbed Project Texas, stores all Americans’ data on served owned and maintained by Oracle, with additional oversight from independent auditors.

I still don’t understand how they would enforce such a ban.
