  2. This guy Chinese CEO of tik tok give American laws make double Middle fingers,, big one ,,

  3. IF you are listening to testimony you can see the Congress people have every reason now to shut it down. They are well prepared, they have invetigates for weeks with a large staff. This is not to investigate anything, this is for transparency , for citizens to see what Tik Tok is about. And right now they have a myriad of reasons to shut it down. Pronto….
    (the CEO is 97% BS)

  4. I'm more worried about right wing extremists and home grown domestic terrorism than I am about TikTok

  5. The old folks of the House committee come across as combative rather than investigative. They don't appear to be attentive to details, e.g., in his opening comments, the TikTok CEO noted that a data-storage for U.S. operations has already been built in Texas and is undergoing additional development, meaning that the data of U.S. users going forward would remain on U.S. mainland; yet the CEO continued to get redundant questions about "whether the data is going to the communist Chinese government."

    Some congress officials were lamenting why TikTok's operations in China were "not identical" to that of U.S. Even the lay person understands that countries have different laws and regulations which influence product specifications of their respective markets. If congress wants product specifications identical to the Chinese market, then they would have to adopt Chinese laws, …but then, their argument seems to be that the "Chinese government is bad."

    Congressional questions have so far largely focused on industry-wide issues like "child safety," occasional "harmful" user content and "harvesting user data," rather than squarely on national security matters; the supposed point of the hearing was to focus on "national security." The congressional hearing has been dominated by filibustering and making unsubstantiated/questionable accusations while obstructing the ability of TikTok to provide answers. The event is proving to be a circus rather than a serious forum for ironing out "national security" issues.
