Time’s Up, TikTok: Why Congress is United in Banning the App

It’s not often that Democrats and Republicans find themselves aligned on policy. However, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew unified Congress as he was grilled by a bipartisan committee who argued that the popular short-video app should be banned in the United States.

While TikTok claims it offers a powerful tool to bring people together, momentum appears to be gaining as governments across the globe raise concerns over the app’s alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

Did Chew’s testimony exude trust? Will Project Texas be enough to satisfy Congress? Is TikTok just part of a larger problem with social media platforms and data privacy? Tune in as Austin, Thomas, and Kim discuss on the latest episode of The Business Communicators.
