TikTok CEO says company at ‘pivotal moment’
short video app TikTok faces a “pivotal moment” as a growing number of US lawmakers seek to ban the popular app over national security concerns, CEO Shou Zi Chew said.
Chew asked TikTok users to leave comments about what they wanted US lawmakers to know about “what you love about TikTok”, and thousands responded in support. Banning TikTok “would be another message to younger voters that we don’t care about what you think,” Bowman said.TikTok also said Tuesday it had updated its community use guidelines and offered more details of its plans to secure the data of US users.
