“In light of recent events, we’ve decided to stop operations of the TikTok app in Hong Kong,” a company spokesman told the Reuters news agency. The source said the move was made because it was not clear if Hong Kong would now fall entirely under mainland China’s jurisdiction.over user-data requests. Facebook said it was conducting a review. WhatsApp said it was conducting formal human-rights due diligence and consultations with human-rights experts.
TikTok is owned by Chinese unicorn ByteDance. But the company has repeatedly said that it does not share data with the Chinese government, does not operate Chinese censorship standards, and cannot be accessed in China. Bytedance has a largely similar, but separate, app called Douyin, which is tailored for the mainland Chinese market.
TikTok has been downloaded more than 2 billion times, and recently claimed 150,000 users in Hong Kong. Despite TikTok, now run by former Disney executive Kevin Mayer, apparently hewing to western standards of conduct, the company was last week one of several Chinese-owned apps that were banned in India. That followed a deadly border dispute between India and China.
