If we don’t ban TikTok, then what do we do?
The idea of our government taking action to protect our society from TikTok is absolutely not a far out idea and is, I think, appropriate. The problem with banning something is we don’t have any kind of special legal or decision-making structure about how to ban a social media app. This is kind of uncharted territory for the U.S.
You can think I as an individual don’t want the Chinese government to have my information. But there’s a larger societywide concern. We know that the Russian government sought to meddle in the 2016 elections by manipulating social media. We have seen over the past year that the Chinese government is learning from Russia. They have undertaken several campaigns on Twitter, most notably, to feed disinformation.
ByteDance, which is the Chinese parent company that owns TikTok, assisted Chinese government efforts to identify and locate Uighur women of childbearing age. And once they were located, they were rounded up and some of them were put into camps and some of them went through a forced sterilization process as part of the campaign of genocide that the Chinese government is perpetrating in Xinjiang.
This is the same situation as Zoom. Zoom is definitely an American company, but they have 700 research and development employees in China. All 700 of those employees are subject to China’s intelligence and cybersecurity laws, which means that any one of them could be approached and asked to give assistance.
