TikTok CEO Shou Chew published a video Wednesday urging users to 'protect your constitutional rights' against a bipartisan bill that would force China to divest from the app.
TikTok CEO Shou Chew is loudly protesting the continued success of a bill that would force Chinese divestment from the social media app. The House of Representatives easily passed the proposed legislation on Wednesday requiring TikTok parent company Bytedance to divest from the app — or else ban TikTok's distribution in the United States. 'Over the last few years, we have invested to keep your data safe and our platform free from outside manipulation.
We will not stop fighting and advocating for you. We will continue to do all we can, including exercising our legal rights to protect this amazing platform that we have built with you,' Chew told users. 'We believe we can overcome this together.' The bill was led in the lower chamber by House China select committee Chair Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., and ranking member Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill. It passed with overwhelming bipartisan approval and a 352-65 vote.
Chew concluded in his video, 'I encourage you to keep sharing your stories, share them with your friends, share them with your family, share them with your senators. Protect your constitutional rights. Make your voices heard.' TikTok’s critics have long warned that the social media app poses a national security threat. Lawmakers have cited concerns about the Chinese government’s ability to leverage its power over Bytedance to access sensitive user data.
