NEW YORK (AP) — Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte on Wednesday signed into law a first-of-its kind bill that makes it illegal for TikTok to operate in the state, setting up a potential legal fight with the company amid a litany of questions over whether the state can even enforce the law.

The new rules in Montana will have more far-reaching effects than TikTok bans already in place on government-issued devices in nearly half the states and the U.S. federal government. There are 200,000 TikTok users in Montana as well as 6,000 businesses that use the video-sharing platform, according to company spokesperson Jamal Brown.

Here’s what you need to know:

WHY IS MONTANA BANNING TIKTOK?

Proponents of the law in Montana claim the Chinese government could harvest U.S. user data from TikTok and use the platform to push pro-Beijing misinformation or messages to the public.

That mirrors arguments made by a bipartisan group of lawmakers in the U.S. Senate, as well as the heads of the FBI and the CIA, all of whom have said TikTok could pose a national security threat because its Beijing-based parent company ByteDance operates under Chinese law.

Critics have pointed to China’s 2017 national intelligence law that compels companies to cooperate with the country’s governments for state intelligence work. Another Chinese law, implemented in 2014, has similar mandates.

TikTok says it has never been asked to hand over its data, and it wouldn’t do so if asked.

HOW DOES MONTANA PLAN TO BAN TIKTOK?

The law will prohibit downloads of TikTok in the state and fine any “entity” — an app store or TikTok — $10,000 per day for each time someone accesses TikTok, “is offered the ability” to access it, or downloads it.

That means Apple and Google, which operate app stores on Apple and Android devices, would be liable for any violations. Penalties would not apply to users.

The statewide ban won't take effect until January 2024. It would be void if the social media platform is sold to a company that is not based in "any country designated as a foreign adversary” by the federal government.

The governor indicated he wants to expand the bill to other social media apps in order to address some of the bill’s “technical and legal concerns.” But the legislature adjourned before sending him the bill, which meant he couldn’t offer his amendments.

Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen has pointed to technology used to restrict online sports gambling apps as a way to curtail TikTok from operating in the state. Those violations can be reported by anyone. And once the state verifies a breach has taken place, it sends a cease-and-desist letter to the company involved, said Kyler Nerison, a spokesperson for Knudsen's office. He said different companies use different methods for compliance and it's up to them “to not allow their apps to work in Montana and other states where they are not legal.”

SO, COULD THE TIKTOK BAN WORK?

Cybersecurity experts say that, other than avoiding the fine, there's nothing incentivizing the companies involved to comply and it will be extremely difficult — if not impossible — to adequately enforce the law.

For one, the U.S. doesn't have anything equivalent to the type of control countries like China have on what their citizens access on the web. Compounding that, internet service providers are out of the picture.

Before the Montana law passed, lawmakers rewrote portions of the bill to let them off the hook after a lobbyist for AT&T said during a February hearing the legislation was “not workable” to put into effect.

COULD TECH COMPANIES BLOCK IT?

Apple and Google have not spoken out against the law. But a representative for TechNet, the trade group that counts the two tech giants as its members, has said app stores don’t have the ability to “geofence” apps in different states and it would be impossible to prevent TikTok from being downloaded in Montana. The group has also said the responsibility should be on an app to determine where it can operate, not an app store.

Telecoms analyst Roger Entner, of Recon Analytics, says he believes the app stores could have the capability to enforce the law, but it would be cumbersome to implement and full of loopholes. Apple and Google’s address-linked billing could be bypassed with prepaid cards and IP geolocation easily masked by using a VPN service, which can alter IP addresses and allows users to evade content restrictions, said mobile security expert Will Strafach, the founder of Guardian, which makes a privacy protection app for Apple devices.

Oded Vanunu, head of products vulnerability research at the cybersecurity firm Check Point, agreed it would be difficult for app stores to isolate a single state from downloading an app. He suggested it would be more feasible for TikTok to comply since it controls the software and can “adjust the settings based on the geographical location or IP addresses" of users.

COULD TIKTOK BLOCK ITSELF?

When users allow TikTok to collect their location information, it can track a person to at least 3 square kilometers (1.16 square miles) from their actual location. If that feature is disabled, TikTok can still collect approximate location information - such as the region, city or zip code in which a user may be located - based on device or network information, like an IP address.

But similar to the app stores, cybersecurity experts note that any enforcement measures the company implements could be easily bypassed with a VPN and efforts to use IP geolocating might lead to other issues.

David Choffnes, the executive director of the Cybersecurity and Privacy Institute at Northeastern University, said cell providers may use the same types of IP addresses for multiple states, which could mean someone who is not in Montana could incorrectly be blocked from using TikTok.

WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT?

Likely a legal battle.

Knudsen, Montana's attorney general, has already said he expects the law will end up in court.

TikTok spokesperson Brooke Oberwetter said in a prepared statement Wednesday that the law infringes on Montanan's free speech rights and is unlawful.

“We want to reassure Montanans that they can continue using TikTok to express themselves, earn a living, and find community as we continue working to defend the rights of our users inside and outside of Montana,” Oberwetter said.

Oberwetter declined to say if the company will file a lawsuit but described some of the legal issues at play. She argued Montana is attempting to override U.S. foreign policy by claiming the bill addresses a national security risk. She said foreign policy and national security laws are not made at the state level.

NetChoice, a trade group that represents TikTok and other tech companies, says the bill would violate the First Amendment and “bill of attainder” laws that prohibit the government from imposing a punishment on a specific entity without a formal trial.

A chime goes off in your study. "Here we go again," you think to yourself. A couple minutes later, the door to your lab is kicked down, and a band of plucky adventurers storms in.

"Have at thee, vile blaggard! Your reign of terror ends now!"

"Number seven."

"Y- Excuse me?"

"Number seven. On the list."

Still engrossed in your work, you point a bony finger at a bronze plaque, hanging just to the left of the door:

Congratulations, you made it to Hyrocritus' secret lair! Help yourself to restoratives, a hot meal, and a reward voucher from the commons, redeemable at any adventurer's guild in the Greater Lanorian area and outlying islands. Offer void where prohibited. Attack the lich at your own peril.

Frequently Asked Questions (and shouted proclamations) 1. "How old are you?" 4,627 years old (legally dead E.F. 117) 2. "What are you doing?" Botany. If you're interested, feel free to tour the garden, behind the large iron door, third from the left down the hall, the password is "Orchidacaea" (Orc-kid-day-see-eye) in common tongue. Please be mindful of open flames, they will set off the fire alarm. 3. "Where's the treasure?" My garden is the treasure. You may take cuttings, if you wish. Be respectful of the plants, the golems and I do not tolerate wanton destruction. 4. "Are you evil?" No. 5. "Really?" Yes, really. Detect alignment if you don't believe me. 6. "If you're not evil then why is your lair trapped and guarded?" To keep out intruders, unwanted pests, and my in-laws. 7. [Various proclamations of evildoing or villainy.] I haven't left my lair in three thousand years, and I don't plan on it any time soon. Whatever it was, I guarantee you it's not me, I really couldn't care less, I have zero interest in mortal affairs. 8. [Various proclamations of heroic duty and appeals to justice.] "Curses, foiled again." You have saved the day by ensuring that the lich will terrorize the countryside no longer. Congratulations. 9. [Various proclamations of divine mandate to extinguish the taint of undeath.] I don't eat souls, I don't kidnap children, and I don't despoil fair maidens. If your god still calls me evil, then you should probably re-examine the tenets of your faith.

The group, giving you the side-eye, reads each item on the list. You hear a chuckle out of the roguish-looking one as he pockets a couple vouchers.

The burly one speaks up: "The king says you destroyed a village last week. The fire wiped it clean off the map."

"Always they want to talk. Fine." You set down your tools. "I don't know if you can't read or simply chose not to believe the plaque, but I can guarantee you I was down here last week, as with every week, taking notes on the cell structure of a cross-varietal. The last time I had a group in here asking about a disintegrated village, it ended up being a drunk court wizard that the king had to cover for. Maybe pick up your search for villainy there?"

The one in robes scrutinizes you. She doesn't like it, but she knows you're telling the truth. "...He's being straight with us. The king sent us on a wild goose chase."

"Close the door on your way out, please. And, do me a favor - tell whoever's responsible that I've moved out. Usually buys me a couple decades before someone else comes knocking."

They shut the door behind them. You hear some chatter from the party. The halfling says something about wanting to see the flowers. You sigh, and return to your work.

You were a renowned individual in a world where certain mythical entities are real. Becoming a lich in order to continue your work was the best decision you’ve made yet! Though this is the 100th time someone has come to destroy you since, and it’s getting bothersome.

CAUTION: ANY ATTEMPT BY A PERSON TO DELIBERATELY DAMAGE OR UNDERMINE THE LEGITIMATE OPERATION OF THE SWEEPSTAKES MAY BE IN VIOLATION OF CRIMINAL AND CIVIL LAWS AND, SHOULD SUCH AN ATTEMPT BE MADE, SPONSOR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SEEK REMEDIES AND DAMAGES (INCLUDING ATTORNEY’S FEES) FROM ANY SUCH PERSON TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, INCLUDING CRIMINAL PROSECUTION.

Matt Donovan: Hey Elena, I have an idea! What if, instead of staying in town while vampire and werewolves and hybrids oh my murder everyone you love, what if you packed a bag and got the hell out of our lives town?

Elena Gilbert: Matt, that’s silly! How can I enjoy the tears of my loved ones if I’m not here! Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go put on some skimpy clothing and take a run through the seedy part of town!

Matt Donovan: Bro, any chance you could talk some sense into her?

Stefan Salvatore: Sorry bro, I left awesome me back in Chicago. It’s Doormat Stefan from here on out.

The Doorbell: Ding Dong!

Elena Gilbert: I bet that’s someone terribly dangerous! Let me answer it!

Elijah: Hi guys! I was just-

The Twitters: SQUEEEEEEEE!

Elijah: Does that hurt your ears as badly as it hurts mine? I mean, it’s nice to be loved and all, but … wow.

– Mystic Grill – Teacher of Terror –

Vampilaric Stabman: Okay Jeremy, so what I need from you is a ten page paper, properly cited, on how no one in Mystic Falls, especially the Salvatores, owned any slaves, the location of Klaus’ body, and your summary of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Get that to me by Monday, or I’ll have to dock you a letter grade. And tear out your throat with my teeth.

– The Gilbert House – Perfect Planning –

Elijah: So here’s the plan: you guys help me find Vampilaric and steal his Witch Weapon of Supernatural Slaughter, and give me Klaus’ body, and we’ll run litle scared little bunnies, taking Vampilaric with us. And as an added bonus, if you act now, not only will you receive one lifetime free of my psychotic brother’s machinations, you’ll recieve a second *lifetime free of Klaus’ machinations absolutely free!

* Second lifetime free of Klaus’ machinations only redeemable by children of the Doppelganger. All bets are off if Elena becomes a vampire. No purchase necessary. Offer void where prohibited.

Elena Gilbert: Since trusting you has never gone horribly, terribly wrong in the past … I accept!

Damon Salvatore (on the phone): Facepalm.

– Lockwood Estates – Outtings and Outrage –

Carol Lockwood: Hi guys! You know that horrible, terrible secret you two are keeping? The secret that would make the Founder’s Council and every law enforcement officer in the town crave your death the way a fat kid craves cake? The secret that we promised to hold close and never, ever reveal?

Tyler Lockwood: …

Caroline Forbes: …

Sheriff Liz Forbes: We done fucked up.

– The Gilbert House – Friends and Felonies –

Matt Donovan: Jeremy, I’m so sorry! You’re in a terrible predicament! What are you going to do?

Jeremy Gilbert: Well, he knows to check Wikipedia, so I think I’m gonna try and buy a report off of EssayMill.com. I’m pretty sure there’s no way it’ll be completely obvious that I wasn’t the one who wrote it, even when I suddenly start turning in A-level work.

Matt Donovan: I meant about Vampilaric and Elena and Klaus’ body.

Jeremy Gilbert: Oh, that. I figured I’d just kidnap Elena and take her somewhere safe. Everyone else does it.

The Gilbert House – Twists, Turns, and Terror –

Jeremy Gilbert (on the phone): Hi vampilaric! Damon is on his way to burry Klaus’ body in the woods, the same way he “buried” Viki’s body under a thin layer of leaves!

Matt Donovan (on the phone): That was my sister!

Jeremy Gilbert (on the phone): Also, Elijah helped me with that term paper. That’s cool, right? Also, Elijah totally isn’t back in town, and we’re absolutely not planning to double cross you.

Elena Gilbert (on the phone): I am!

Jeremy Gilbert: Elena, hush! That’s supposed to be a surprise!

Elijah: Facepalm.

– Lockwood Estates – Montagues and Capulets –

Caroline Forbes: Hi Tyler! This latest threat to our lives really sucks! But I’ve come up with a fantastic idea! Let’s get a friendly monk to marry us, and then run away, forsaking the violence and strife of this city forever!

Tyler Lockwood: That worked really well when it happened in Romeo and Juliette, so let’s give it a try!

Caroline Forbes: Great! I’ll go get my curling iron!

Tyler Lockwood: I’ll meet you in two hours!

Caroline Forbes: Two hours! I said I have to get my curling iron, not pass the Civil Servants exam.

– Self Storage of Slaughter –

Damon Salvatore: Hi Bonnie! For some unknown reason, I’m going to go ahead and listen to another one of Elena’s terrible plans! So here’s Klaus’ body!

Bonnie Bennet: Great! Say, can you leave us alone for a few minutes, so I can fuck this up even worse than it already is?

Damon Salvatore: Yeah, sure, whatever. I’ll be in the car. Drinking.

lmao!! 3x22 is beyond insane to me, and yet another instance where Damon is right. Matt only got it half right because he was stupid enough to turn around. Why no one bothered to track Alaric is beyond me. I'm the type of person that would have eyes on my enemy at all times. Somehow he got 100 miles out of town with no one noticing he was no longer in town lol

Users can access and explore the early-access version of the Platform and receive updates by visiting https://BitNile.com. The Platform uses Google Analytics to track usage and identify users. A user is considered to be “engaged” if one of the following conditions is met: the session lasted longer than ten seconds; it resulted in one or more conversion events; or it resulted in two or more page/screen views.

Book IV - Obligations and Contracts - Title I - Obligations

Chapter 3 Different Kinds of Obligations

Art. 1183. Impossible conditions, those contrary to good customs or public policy and those prohibited by law shall annul the obligation which depends upon them. If the obligation is divisible, that part thereof which is not affected by the impossible or unlawful condition shall be valid. The condition not to do an impossible thing shall be considered as not having been agreed upon.

______________________________________________________________

This article applies only where the impossibility existed at the time it was created. If the impossibility arise after the obligation was created, this does not apply. The impossible condition is present if the obligation cannot be possibly performed physically or legally.

Physical impossibility are in the nature of things that are non-existent or cannot be done. Example, A will pay B P100,000 if he can catch a unicorn and bring it to A.

Legally impossible conditions are illegal and illicit circumstances that are contrary to law, morals, good customs, public order, or public policy. Example is for a person to kill someone in exchange of a sum of money as a condition.

Effect of Impossible Conditions

1. Conditional Obligation Void. Impossible conditions nullify the obligation that depends upon them. Both the obligation and the condition is void, for the reason that the obligor is aware that his obligation cannot be fulfilled and that he has no intention of fulfilling his obligation.

(2) Conditional obligation valid. — If the condition is doable and can be fulfilled physically and legally.

(3) Only the affected obligation void. — If the obligation is divisible, the portion not affected by the impossible condition will stand.

EXAMPLE: “I will give you P10,000.00 if you sell my land, and a car, if you kill Pedro.” The obligation to give P10,000.00 is valid but the obligation to give a car is void because it is dependent upon an impossible condition.

(4) Only the condition void. — If the obligation is a pre-existing one, and is not dependent on the fulfillment of the impossible condition, for it exist, only the condition is void.

EXAMPLE: D incurred an obligation in the amount of P10,000.00 in favor of C. If C later agreed to kill X before D pays him, the condition “to kill X” is void but not the pre-existing obligation of D “to pay C.”

Case Luneta Motor Co v Abad

Facts

Luneta Motor Co ﬁled a suit against Federico Abad, and asked for a writ to attach Abad’s properties. The writ was granted, but Abad asked for its cancellation, and for this purpose offered a bond, secured by two sureties. The bond contained a statement that in case Luneta Motor should WIN, the sureties would answer for Abad’s liability. Because of this bond, the writ was dissolved. Later, Abad died which cause the case to be dismissed.

Issue

Whether or not Luneta Motor can recover the amount owed through the sureties?

Held

The obligation of the sureties, under the counterbond, is subject to the condition that when the plaintiff recovered judgment, they shall deliver the property so released to the officer of the court for the payment of said judgment or in default thereof, pay its full value to the plaintiff. This condition has become a legal impossibility, for no judgment can be recovered by the plaintiff in the case which should be dismissed under section 119 aforementioned. Therefore, the obligation dependent upon this condition must be deemed extinguished, according to article 1116 of our Civil Code.

The introduction of coin packages in the Platform, which users can purchase in varying denominations, has generated a revenue stream for the Company. Other popular social games, such as blackjack and slots, are currently under development, and are expected to lead to increased revenue. BitNile.com has also begun to recognize advertising revenue, which is consistent with the Company’s larger plan to monetize its metaverse Platform. The strategy entails personalized advertising and partnerships with popular ad networks. The unique advertising ecosystem developed within BitNile.com’s metaverse offers marketers exposure to an actively engaged audience, thus boosting ad revenue. BitNile Metaverse, through its wholly owned subsidiary BitNile.com, Inc.
