TikTok CEO to Address Congress on App's Future Amid National Security Concerns and 150 Million Users

While concerns about TikTok's potential national security risks have led governments worldwide to ban the app on official devices, security experts say the government's fears, while serious, currently appear to reflect only the potential for TikTok to be used for foreign intelligence, not that it has been. There is still no public evidence the Chinese government has actually spied on people through TikTok. TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew has publicly said that the Chinese government has never asked TikTok for its data, and that the company would refuse any such request.
