After US threatens ban, what could TikTok’s next move be? | DW News

- The US is poised to ban TikTok unless the social media app cuts its ties to China. US lawmakers overwhelmingly voted for a bill which forces the Chinese owner to sell the app to an owner from a country other than China or face a total ban. The US is that the social media service could be used to collect American citizens' personal data and that it poses a threat to national security. China has protested, saying it's unfair to use those arguments to bring down the competitive advantage of other countries.

Are you serious? China saying that banning TikTok is UNFAIR when China literally bans ALL FOREIGN APPS???!! Joke of the century!!!
Exactly! unfair LoL. China owns and control TikTok or else it wouldn't be outragged by US ban.
It's unfair TikTok wasn't banned years ago
Ikr, zero surprise here at their reaction
Now you know what the Philippines is dealing with inside their Exclusuve Economic Zone/West Philippine Sea.
China asked to have foreign app to setup server in China, google and Facebook refused and left. But TikTok setup separate server with Oracle to meet US requirement.
So not allowing TH-cam and Google doing business in China is fair?
Exactly
yes they have their own versions.
now, however, ALL programs foreign to China will be OUT.
rip trillions in USA profit.
Also Facebook, Instagram, whatsapp, Wikipedia and Reddit
they're have their own version.
however this will result in complete disconnection to usa culture meaning trillions in losses for current usa companies with access to the chinese market.
Yes. China didn’t claim that TH-cam and Google are threats to their national security. Countries can ban whatever they want, but they should be honest about the reason.
China would not ban any non-Chinese apps in return, because all those apps have been banned in China long time ago. Instead, it would harass Taiwan and Philippines in revenge.
or release corona 2.0
you mean US is becoming China?
Wt kind of logic is it many countries banned in Asia already
啊???我不用苹果Office的么?你是坏还是蠢?
@fufu9352 what is "Apple Office"
Google, TH-cam, X, Facebook, WhatsApp, ban, ban, ban! What’s the fuss just banning one TikTok?
Exactly. Why can China ban US social media companies but the US can't?
@@jermaingermaine1973 Let me explain the 100 times because your trusted media never tell: China bans some US social media because they place Chinese data inside US. In comparison, TikTok exclusively place data inside the US, guarded by US governmental agents.
China banned them because they store Chinese data in the USA. TikTok however stores data in the USA exclusively.
Their reasons are not the same, US can ban everything without any proof if they consider a national security threat.
@@jermaingermaine1973all social medias should be banned everywhere in the world
fair and square , because TH-cam is also banned in China since 2009.
And no one says anything about it.
Chinese can buy properties in foreign countries, but foreigners are not allowed to buy properties in China.
Better, Tiktok is actually banned in China too.
It's not just TH-cam, Google, Facebook, Insta, X, Wikipedia, and all the major news sites plus 10000s of other apps are all banned in China
@@francoislechanceux5818 Tiktok stores data exclusively inside the US, that is why they are banned in China.
TH-cam refuses to store Chinese data inside China. That is why. TikTok stores all data inside the USA, guarded by US governmental agents on US soil. Duh!
China is smart is my conclusion
For china to talk about any compettion is hilarious they have state owned car companies, realestate, and social media try to find insta or twitter in china goodluck.
TikTok is banned in China…
@@jimsquire-chestnuts8381 No is different
Really? Now, google, facebook, etc refuse to store data in China. This is why China rejected them. In comparison, TikTok places all American data inside the US. Any transmission out of the US has to go through US border and/or internet hub.
All the US companies require placing Chinese customer data inside the US. That was why they were banned in China. TikTok places all US customer data inside the US. Duh!
Can inst and twitter store data in China, not the US? this is my question to you.
The Chinese Government is practically proving the point here. They complaining about it. If there is no link why do they complain?
That's what I have in mind.
Because US is forcing a Chinese company to sell its US branch to a US company, which is abuse of power from American side.
Seriously? Imagine if Germany said they'll ban Ford cars unless Ford sells itself to a non US country
@@HTSGOSU yeah a car and social media are the same thing.🥴
LOL. What?
The US isn’t even trying to outright ban TikTok. It’s simply trying to force the Chinese company (ByteDance) that owns the US-based branch of TikTok it to sell it to a Western or Western-friendly buyer. That’s called “forced divestiture” in legal terms. The ban is simply being used to force ByteDance to choose between compliance, or being excluded from the US market.

When I see how addicted the teenagers and their friends in my family are to TikTok's manipulative algorithm, I support banning the app.

so you also support banning Instagram, TH-cam, etc ?
@@cdcmNein. Just the tok.
Go anywhere in the US, it's not just teenagers but everyone is constantly looking at the smart phones. Ban smart phones? The iphone is designed to be addicting.
Then ban it with an honest reason, not made up one like “ national security”. Coming up a false accusation, that’s manipulation. And ban all the SM, not just tik tok. Otherwise it’s discrimination
i feel so bad for the guy with a penthouse...
Well, it's a mouse trap. Reward a few mice to get the rest of mice inside the trap. Clever.
I swear 😮
When the US arrested the head of Alstom, France also cried out that it was unfair. When the US tapped the German Chancellor's bedside phone, German also cried out that it was disheartening. Then every thing still goes well in those countries.😊 There is no fairness or unfairness in this world, it's just a matter of enduring or fighting back.
From a business perspective, Tiktok would rather go bankrupt in the United States than be split up by American companies. Because that would mean that Tiktok would be sold at a low price besides its technology and all overseas markets would be stolen by American companies. There are too many examples of the United States completely destroying foreign companies and markets after one or two years of mergers.
sounds like you are crying chinas crocodile tears for them
@@delvelingMaybe in fact you are that crocodile caught in America?😂
There are many benefits to banning TikTok. But yes TikTok would likely not sell. 170 Millions of americans will get mad at their govt. 6 million business on Tik Tok. Many of these might actually vote based on TikTok's ban.
It is highly likely that Tiktok will leave the United States or go bankrupt in the United States. Because the United States' goal is to swallow Tiktok and occupy its global share. Security is just the fig leaf of US rogue trick.
Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin said on CNBC on Thursday: "I think TikTok should be sold. This is a good business, and I will form a group to acquire TikTok."
your brain and opinion is clearest
China is complaining like they would allow an American app linked to the NSA to be used in China. That is the equivalent of Tik Tok being used in the US.
It's data collection tool. People use data to manipulate and control other people.
When Elon Musk took over Twitter, he found out that content moderators at Twitter and Facebook (as well as most US social media sites) were staffed by ex FBI/CIA/NSA folks. The US intel agencies have more censors (per capita) than China has. The issue is not is it fair to China the issue US neocons want complete control of the US internet firewall.
As required by the US government, the Chinese government requires servers to be placed in China and comply with Chinese laws. Can you do it? TikTok did it.
Tik tok is private company, has nothing to do with gov entity, the NSA analogy doesn’t apply
@@TuhunluunBionoid there is no such thing as a totally private company in China, the government including their intelligence services have access to everything if they want. So the analogy is pretty accurate.
The fact that the Chinese foreign ministry is the loudest complainant tells me everything I need to know.
Empty Barrel Makes The LOUDest Sound 👀

No it's not fair, the world isn't fair especially with you in it Xi.
EU needs also to impose TikTok ban !!!
Who says?
Why stop there? Maybe EU should also consider banning Facebook or TH-cam to give local social media a great opportunity to grow. After all, EU has created zero app that’s influential world wide due to the US and Chinese competition for years now.
Can't even use TikTok in China
Bit ignorant. How about you search for what TiKTok is called in China
@@chubetwatNope. It's absolutely 2 different apps. Doyin and tiktok are not the same. Tiktok is banned in China.
TikTok stores data exclusively inside the USA, that is why it is banned in China.
@@francoislechanceux5818because TikTok data base and server is in the US
China has a much higher standard for apps. You can critisize them as much as you want concerning censorship - but they do also care for the health of their own people.
Hearing the CCP complain about “fair competition” makes me cackle. 😂 Also there are some very obvious CCP bots in this comment section. PS: the last guest has to be on bytedance’s payroll.. it visibly pained him to spew some of that baseless nonsense.
😂Just to remind you Google Facebook quit
Chinese market themselves because they
don't want to follow Chinese media law which
applies to all businesses in China. Tiktok follows
American laws but still get banned That is the
difference.
Come on is that hard to admit the US
government simply wants to own TikTok because
it is successful. Same story happens again and
again.
I pray that this ban goes through
already banned in your Hindu nations.
Chinese high-tech companies, including TikTok's owner ByteDance, are extensions of the Chinese government.
- How do I know this? Chinese "national security" laws say so!
Kinda like American National Security laws do the same thing with our companies.. If the US asks for your data from Facebook or any other US company they have to give it to the Govt
Also state controlled "free" private US platforms apply autocensorship on the comments and contents. Not only violating things but also politics that US will not like. Google is not more innocent then tiktok. They use and sell our userdatas by force. Since they are dominant and have no serious opponent in the market, they find themself right to manipulate User datas and ban the voices. Tiktok is not a compare to google but a rising opponent. That theats American data collecting companies
You don't get it.
Show us where this 'law' is. None of you can even read or speak the language and apparently you've scoured through the law books in China.
😂 @ China
Banning foreign social media apps to the Great Firewall.
Ban public servants from having Apple smartphones.
Etc.
When western countries are aftaid of banning TikTok but India is the first to ban this app and more than 120 Chinese App
We should learn from the most democratic and free Afghanistan to ban TikTok.
Please don’t compare india to western countries, its democracy is a joke of the world.
Bravo bravo.
US doesn't have balls.
Isnt You Tube and other US social networks being used to monitor other countries citizens that use American platforms?By that logic other countries should also start banning US apps.
Yes. Ed Snowden was punished for bringing it to light.
BAN IT.
Imagine them hacking every single phone if we go to war.
swaitun, India has already banned it. I think America is not as corrupt.
Your phone only?
Some of These ppl need to get a real job 😂
As a Chinese, I say this is absolutely a legitimate concern. If we acknowledge that ccp has full access to data collected by Wechat, Taobao, Alipay or any other apps in China, why would we assume that this is not happening to Tiktok?
The US is like a street gangster who demand a very successful street hawker to sell the stall to him.
The world's Biggest Gangster!
So google dont have info of their user?? 😊
If only US imposed the same scrutiny to other social media sites, it would not be such a controversy.
So what about China banned twitter, You tube, Google, Facebook and even TikTok highly censored in China?
Bye TikTok !!!! hate this app and what it does to the new generation
Im willing to give up youtube ang google spotify for this usa owns lot more social media apps and i dont think its a threat same thing for tiktok
China crying wolf, when all their users are behind a firewall and cannot access many non Chinese applications ;)
Tell China to unban TH-cam, Facebook, Instagram, Google and Yahoo in China, then they can say something about this.
They did it respectively in respond to the American bans on Chinese products.
America doesn’t want this a government acting outside of the will. The people do US citizenship vote. The fact that they won’t let us means I feed him a speech is a debt in the US.
China bans Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp, Netflix, Google etc in China. So, nothing wrong with US banning TikTok in the US
Quit yakking, Uncle Sam. Go ahead and make my day!
Those companies refuse to store their data in china, so they withdraw from china market, if they comply, they can operate in china. However Tiktok follow the US request, so why now want to ban it
😂Just to remind you Google Facebook quit

Does that mean China can ban iPhones for national security reasons too?
Maybe but there are 1.5million chinese who depend on apples supply chain for a job
They'll just hint at a boycott if you love your country and stir up that nationalistic pot. Then iPhone sales will go down without a ban.
Yes and if they do who cares
Don’t asked USA government, ask TikTok users!!!
Germany is a total vssal state to the US.
Ps: and ban X too!
The Irony saying it’s unfair is hilarious 😂
Pure hysterical anti-China antics
I seriously detest this app. How can people be so dumb. I don't get it.
The practice of China government is quite different from USA.
China: There are the internet regulations that all internet Apps should follow, no matter the ownership of App. If not , blocked technically by its Great Firewall.
USA : no regulations Tiktok failed to follow so far. But Tiktok is owned by China company , it has to be sold to a US friendly company , otherwise , it is banned.
The same bill can be used to ban websites/Apps of any countries that US does not like , such as Middle East /Arabs media, Or Africa Media. Even worse, it can be used to ban Twitter (X) as US president can claim X is controlled by foreign enemy.
The same way meta does 🤦🏻♂️
*The irony !* 🙄
Tiktok is so bad for kids.. that its 🤢
Totally unfair. After all, you can use Google and TH-cam in China! Oh, wait...
Google and TH-cam wanted to spy on China, that’s why they’re not allowed. They insisted on storing Chinese data in America. That is not compliant with Chinese law. TikTok doesn’t store data in China. Please do your research.
Google and TH-cam refuses to store Chinese data inside China. TikTok stores data inside the USA. Duh!
you cannot use google and youtube in china because they would not like to follow the chinese laws and prefer freedom of speech. then google left china. facebook is a tool in the color revolutions all over the world and would not interested in the chinese laws but tiktok follows all the US laws. the real problem is china has no freedom of speech and never claimed that but the US is so proud of itself for having freedom of speech.
Mind Begs the Question:
- TikTok is Security Threat
- Pegasus is Not Security Threat?
china didnt ban any of those APPS, they are allowed run in china if they delete all stuff of porn ,drugs, violence. they say no and left china.
“Fair competition”😂 Can Instagram, TH-cam compete in China?
Competitive advantage from other countries. Hmm, I'm still trying to find ways as a Mexican American to set a shop in Aliexpress, Alibaba, or Temu. They don't let you as a foreigner.
The US wants to have it sold to a company that will do the US government’s bidding .
That is a company like facebook that will hire 1000's of content moderators who used to work for the FBI/CIA/NSA. Thousands of them
It is said that China refused Google but accepted Apple. The reason is the location of data server. Google didn’t allow to set data servers in China for chinese datas. However, TikTok have data server in US and supervised by the third party.
Aha, TikTok receives such severe blow, so quickly, is allegedly due to TikTok users honest report of Isreeli carnage in Pelestine.
The sands of time have run out on tik tok .
Also on youtube x instagram etc...
what the company can do is move the data of all users to a server located somewhere else so that when tiktok is banned the data will not be lost and users in america can still use it using a vpn ,if thats possible the parent company should swiftly move the data with the time they hqave available .
Hold strong tiktok & China don't let US bully you! If US wants to isolate themselves from the world let them, it's their loss
They could always sell the app to Russia. 🤣🤣🤣
Russia wouldn't be allowed to buy it. Only US firms a fire sale price.
Yeah... TikTok like Alibaba, Temu etc can at anytime be forced to share data on anyone, not just Americans.
Not ture. TikTok American Data are stored inside the USA. It is like a most wanted by China can be free in the USA.
Sharing the data for what purpose? China is too busy managing its 1.4 billion people to have an interest in what dance you like to do on tik tok. The threat is over blown and mostly just projecting.
This has more to do about the US not being able to compete against Chinese products in the US than "national security". Hiawei was banned in the US for "national security" without any proof, Chinese electric cars are being targeted for "national security" as well.
This is a treat in all positions
No doubt tiktok uses data collected that way.
But the fun fact is that US companies does exactly the same thing with international users :))
Yes if the Govt really cared about the Data they would pass Data privacy laws..
Would you rather your government do it or a hostile foreign autocratic government?
Apples and oranges. The U.S. government doesn't own stake in any social media companies and don't really care about the data from international users. American businesses might care to better to sell their products. This is about a hostile foreign government having access to the minds and data of Americans.
The issue are two ways, it's not just the availability of the company, but also the availability of the users.
Every country should be monitoring within their own country, so it's one thing US want to ban a foreign apps like TikTok, which is within their right to do that, it's another thing a foreign user sign up on a local platform. It's like a non-Chinese sign up for Douyin (Chinese version of Tiktok) and then complaint about Douyin monitoring their usage. Well, it's within your right not to use that platform.....
You're deflecting. China wants to play by two different sets of rules.
it'd be a service to humanity to ban it worldwide
Only Christienity has freedom inside the USA. It is called discriminatin.
It is easier for US to invade middle-east than ban Tik-tok.😂
So...which company doesn't collect personal data? Aren't our data being collected on a regular basis?
How dare they complaining about unfairness when they ban Facebook, google , eBay , Amazon and many many others and not only that they copied and made their own version .. get out of here with the unfair argument
None of them is banned. Amazon and eBay don’t do well in Chinese market so gave up themselves. Facebook and google didnt want to comply with Chinese law, so they also decide to exit China. Tik tok does well and has complies to US laws but still got singled out. There are huge differences!
U destroyed the karen above . Nice@@TuhunluunBionoid
@@TuhunluunBionoid you can say whatever you want but China copied all of them .. TikTok is pretty much the only Chinese platform and they have to go..!
My understanding of China app rules are to have data store local, regulated with anti-ccp content. Apple , ms are ok with it so they can open shop, google fb say no, then no license.
Facebook is a specific case, they complied with the Chinese law, but China had various terrorist attacks in last decade that were organized in Facebook, and the company refused to cooperate with the Chinese government antiterrorist measures.
I can live without Tiktok. Can't you!??
Smart Chinese people defined the mobile Internet era, and tiktok wrote history. Chinese people are proud of this. You have to admit, this is the glory of those Chinese.
It doesn't matter who is destroying this glory. Just like the dark history of the slave trade cannot destroy the glory of the heroes of that era.

They partially do it in respond to the American bans on Chinese products.
So many lies. China is filled with foreign brands and products everywhere. Where is the banning? . Have you ever been to China?
This is the most hideous precedent of all time. If any foreign company can be forced to be divested like this, then should China reciprocate the same to American companies having businesses there? Worst still, the core values of American capitalism, fair trade, respect of private property, freedom of speech etc are completely shattered in a single move.
umm, the Chinese already did.
And this is not about freedom of speech.
@@cosplayshop You hit the nail on its head. That's not freedom of speech that China was worrying about. What is more concerning for China is undue influence by an external adversary. We have seen social media being used to influence the outcome elections / referendums (like Brexit); or to instigate social unrests or even regime changes (eg Jan 2021 Capitol Hill riot). China obviously does not want a foreign power to interfere with its affairs.
