Wen/Guan Wenping TikTok is in trouble again.
According to the South China Morning Post on July 28, politicians, media and research institutions in the United States, Britain and Australia once again "crusade" the short video platform TikTok for "data privacy".
The popularity of overseas public opinion has risen sharply, with the trend that former US President Trump will exert extreme pressure on TikTok in 2020.
The South China Morning Post reported that TikTok may face a new round of review.
The globalization is blocked.
TikTok is a product of the Chinese technology company Byte Beat, and has many users overseas.
In late June, BuzzFeed, an American news website, revealed that more than 80 TikTok internal recordings showed that Chinese employees could access the data of TikTok's American users.
At that time, politicians from many countries began to launch a "wheel fight" against TikTok.
Brendan Karl, a member of the Federal Communications Commission, publicly called on Twitter to ask Apple and Google to remove TikTok from their app stores, citing "data security issues".
Brendan Carr, a member of the Federal Communications Commission of the United States, called on Apple and Google to remove the TikTok application.
More than a dozen members of Congress sent a letter to the United States Department of Finance, requesting to review the access of TikTok's parent company's byte beating employees to user information.
Former US Secretary of State Pompeo reminded the American people on TV to beware of TikTok;
More members from both parties proposed a new bill against TikTok.
The attacks and doubts on TikTok soon spread to the political circles of Australia and New Zealand, and even became the topic of the British Prime Minister's election debate.
After Australian Attorney General Mark Dreyfus and Liberal Senator James Patterson "challenged" TikTok respectively, the Office of the Australian Regulatory Information Commissioner (OAIC) also announced the start of the investigation against TikTok.
The Speaker of the New Zealand Parliament, Trevor Malad, recently reminded members of the Parliament of the country not to use TikTok on government equipment.
On July 25, British Foreign Secretary Liz Trass, who was vying for the position of Prime Minister, said in the first television debate that if she was elected the next British Prime Minister, she would "open her arms" to Chinese enterprises including social media platform TikTok.
Trass said, "We should definitely crack down on such companies, and we should restrict China's export of technology products to us." On TikTok's data security, the University of Toronto, Canada, released a report as early as 2021, saying that TikTok would not pose a threat to national security.
After conducting a comprehensive security and privacy investigation on TikTok, the report said that no malicious acts of TikTok were found, and TikTok never sent data to the Chinese government.
TikTok CEO Zhou Shouzi said in a letter replying to the questions of the legislators, "From a security perspective, I know that we are one of the most censored platforms, and our goal is to eliminate any doubts about the security of American user data." According to multiple media reports, TikTok has transferred all US data to Oracle cloud servers located in the US
