TikTok is slamming Congress for legislation that would ban the video-sharing app on government devices and said it would not advance the national security of the U.S.
Indiana attorney general Todd Rokita weighs in on state suing app for security and child safety violations and the China threat the app poses on 'Fox Business Tonight.'that would implement what the company says is a "politically motivated" ban on the video-sharing app on government devices, and argues the bill would do "nothing" to advance the national security of the U.S.
"TikTok is loved by millions of Americans who use the platform to learn, grow their businesses and connect with creative content that brings them joy," the spokesperson said. U.S. officials and lawmakers have warned that the Chinese Communist Party could compel the company to turn over American users' data or expose them to propaganda.
"All of these things are in the hands of a government that doesn’t share our values, and that has a mission that's very much at odds with what’s in the best interests of the United States. That should concern us," Wray said. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen says there are"legitimate" concerns with using the Chinese-based app.
