Sen. Mark Warner says he's concerned that TikTok could be used to spread Chinese propaganda through videos it recommends to users.
““They are taking data from Americans, not keeping it safe, but what worries me more with TikTok is that this can be a propaganda tool.” ”
In an interview on “Fox News Sunday,” Warner said the bill, co-sponsored by Republican Sen. John Thune of South Dakota, would be introduced this week, in what would be the harshest government crackdown yet on a social-media app. Warner said he was concerned the popular video-sharing app, which has more than 100 million U.S. active users, could be used to spread Chinese propaganda through videos it recommends to users.
Last week, the Biden administration issued orders banning TikTok from government-issued mobile devices, while a bill that would give President Joe Biden the authority to ban TikTok advanced in the House. Canada and the European Union have also recently moved to ban TikTok from government-issued devices.
