US government officials reportedly want Bytedance to sell its TikTok unit in the United States. They claim it would address security concerns from this social media app.
Florida senator Maro Rubio introduced a bipartisan bill to ban TikTok nationwide. Also, FBI Director Chris Wray believes the TikTok US unit is a national security threat.“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.”
On Friday, Virginia governor Glenn Youngkin passed an executive order banning Tiktok and WeChat from state-run gadgets and wireless networks.data are a channel to the Chinese Communist Party, and their continued presence represents a threat to national security, the intelligence community, and the personal privacy of every single American,” said Youngkin.Also, Georgia governor Brian Kemp released a similar order banning the Bytedance app from state government devices for data security reasons.
Gov. Abbott wrote in a letter, “TikTok harvests vast amounts of data from its users’ devices — including when, where, and how they conduct internet activity—and offers this trove of potentially sensitive information to the Chinese government.”The ban on Bytedance’s TikTok US unit has expanded to the federal government. The House of Representatives will soon ban the app from all US government devices.
