Tiktok recently revealed that their Chinese employees can access European user data, according to their new privacy policy. The app can also pass data to other countries, not only China.

The issue concerned the U.S. government so much that U.S. policymakers wanted to ban TikTok entirely. (Glydelle Espano)
