UNCLE SAM HAPENDI SOKO HURU
A bill has been introduced in both houses of the US Congress to ban TikTok.
Lawmakers insist that the US should ban the use of TikTok, as this social network can allegedly be used to its advantage by the Chinese Communist Party. According to Senator Marco Rubio, TikTok "collects data on tens of millions of Americans every day - children and adults."
In addition, the bill provides for the possibility by the US president of "any transactions" in the United States with companies operating in the field of social networks, if they, according to Washington, are controlled by the authorities of Venezuela, Iran, China, North Korea, Cuba or Russia. The document does not list the names of any other companies other than TikTok and ByteDance.
