Republican leaders are increasing the pressure on TikTok over the possibility that China is able to access its American data.
Reps. James Comer and Cathy McMorris Rodgers sent a letter on Thursday to TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew requesting documents addressing whether China-based employees of TikTok's parent company ByteDance have access to United States user data.
— Brendan Carr July 14, 2022 "If true, not only did TikTok misrepresent or provide false testimony about its data management and security practices, but it has placed the safety and privacy of millions of U.S. citizens at risk," the letter added. The letter is the latest request from Congress after a Buzzfeed News report revealed that the company's Chinese employees were able to access U.S. user data. Nine Republican senators sent a letter to Chew on June 28, requesting answers regarding its relationship with China.
