TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew will appear before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on March 23 to speak on how the app impacts users’ privacy and data.
“ByteDance-owned TikTok has knowingly allowed the ability for the Chinese Communist Party to access American user data,” McMorris Rodgers wrote in part. “Americans deserve to know how these actions impact their privacy and data security, as well as what actions TikTok is taking to keep our kids safe from online and offline harms.”
“We welcome the opportunity to set the record straight about TikTok, ByteDance, and the commitments we are making to address concerns about U.S. national security before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce,” the spokesperson said about the hearing at large. “We hope that by sharing details of our comprehensive plans with the full Committee, Congress can take a more deliberative approach to the issues at hand.
Experts have, in recent months, issued separate warnings surrounding TikTok, owned by Chinese-based company ByteDance. FBI Director Chris Wray in December said control of the popular video sharing app is in the hands of a Chinese government “that doesn’t share our values.”
