Republican senator Rand Paul opposes TikTok ban push FMTNews FMTWorld
WASHINGTON: Republican senator Rand Paul on Wednesday opposed efforts in Congress to ban popular Chinese-owned social media app TikTok, which is used by more than 150 million Americans.
“Congressional Republicans have come up with a national strategy to permanently lose elections for a generation: Ban a social media app called TikTok that 94 million, primarily young Americans, use,” Paul said in an opinion piece published Wednesday in Louisville, Kentucky’s Courier-Journal. TikTok chief executive Shou Zi Chew appeared before Congress last week and faced tough questions about national security concerns over the ByteDance-owned app.
Many Democrats argue Congress should pass comprehensive privacy legislation covering all social media sites, not just TikTok.
