Top Democrat Doesn’t See Tik Tok Ban

Rep. Raja Krishnamoorth (D-IL), the top Democrat on the House China committee, told CBS News that he doesn’t think TikTok is going to get banned in the United States.

Said Krishnamoorth: “I don’t think it’s gonna get banned. I think what we’re asking for is, you know, TikTok is owned by ByteDance, a Chinese company, that’s required to provide its user data, including on the 140 million Americans, as well as control of algorithms to the Chinese Communist Party upon request.”

He added: “All we’re saying is, if TikTok is gonna operate here, don’t have that user data and algorithms controlled by an adversarial regime.”
