The White House’s use of CapCut even as TikTok is banned from U.S. government devices underscores the tension between Biden’s professed national security concerns and his political and communications strategies.
The White House didn’t respond to requests for comment on whether CapCut has been downloaded on any government devices. But typically to create a video using a CapCut template, the app must be downloaded on a user’s device, and access to that device’s photos and videos must be granted.
CapCut’s privacy policy says the app collects information from users like their location, age, gender and usage information. It also says it “may collect information about you if you interact with the Platform without creating an account.”has had 86 million downloads in the U.S. since its launch in April 2020, as well as an estimated 7 million daily users in the U.S., according to Apptopia, a digital data collection company. As of this month, CapCut also is the No.
The popularity of this particular template also highlights the ways CapCut and TikTok increasingly overlap. The audio is TikTok's, and"Happy With You" has been used to soundtrack at least 188,000 posts, according to internal metrics that show users what's popular on the app. The template the White House used is also a favorite on TikTok right now, propelled in part by some of the app’s creators with large followings.
The White House's CapCut-created video was posted the same day TikTok’s CEO was on the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue being grilled by the House Energy and Commerce Committee, largely over concerns the Chinese government could exploit Americans’ use of the app for spying. “Just letting everyone know the Affordable Care Act is still the law of the land,” the White House Instagram post said.
