OTTAWA — MPs at the House of Commons privacy committee grilled executives from social media video platform TikTok over the company’s links to the Chinese government Wednesday.
In February, Canada banned TikTok from government devices. Then-Treasury Board president Mona Fortier said the app “presents an unacceptable level of risk to privacy and security.” “TikTok’s handling of Canadians’ user data is governed by Canadian law, like PIPEDA, and provincial privacy laws. The way that TikTok collects and uses data is similar to other platforms,” he said.
NDP MP Matthew Green asked whether the Chinese government has the ability to access data through a backdoor, without having to make a request.
