Should We Ban TikTok?
from National Insecurity · host Doug Bandow and Ying Ma
The House of Representatives recently voted overwhelmingly to ban TikTok unless the company is divested from its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, within six months. Lawmakers worry that the Chinese government, through TikTok, could get access to vast troves of American data and spread mass misinformation to the American public. We discuss the national security risks, the proper protections for TikTok's American users, and the irony of the app being popular enough to incur congressional wrath.
