The Chinese government has warned the US that a ban on TikTok will have serious consequences.
In a series of TikTok bans across Europe, Canada, and the US, the UK is set to ban TikTok citing security concerns. The Chinese-owned app has come under scrutiny in 2023 in multiple countries that accuse the platform of leaking sensitive data to the Chinese government. British Minister Oliver Dowden said government devices will not be able to access the video-sharing platform.
Considering the Chinese app, a national security threat, a dozen of US senators have introduced a bill seeking to ban TikTok. The new legislation will give the commerce department the power to impose restrictions on apps and technologies that pose national security to the US.
