DOJ Accuses TikTok and ByteDance of Collecting Sensitive US User Data, Censoring Content
Jul 27, 2024, 06:57 AM
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has accused TikTok of collecting data on American users' views on sensitive topics such as gun control, abortion, and religion. According to the DOJ, TikTok censored content at the direction of its China-based parent company, ByteDance. The DOJ's filing, reported by the Wall Street Journal, highlights ongoing security concerns regarding TikTok and ByteDance, suggesting that proposed changes by TikTok would not prevent China from using the app to collect data or spread propaganda. This revelation comes amid legal challenges and discussions about the potential sale or ban of TikTok in the US.
