    The impression I got from the 'lawmakers' is that their 'questions' were more like statements directed to their voters rather than at Shou. Whenever he answered a question, his answer was dismissed. Why did he even bother going? He just gave them an opportunity to grandstand for their electorate.

      Mostly true, but that's what politicians do. They're corrupt hogs that will do whatever they must to keep feeding at the trough, but unfortunately they're the only people who can make the decisions that would secure our nation. As long as we have a representative democracy/corporatized oligarchy for a government & popularity is used as the metric for deciding who will lead us, that is how things are going to be.

That said, while he did appear and might well be honest, I believe the risks are a reality, and I wouldn't let TikTok be installed on neither my kids or my own phone. If my own country should ban TikTok I have no objections I believe we, or all of EU, banned TikTok from official authorities' phones).

      True, this made the Congress look very out of touch and ill informed about these topics. I mean that WiFi question was so embarrassing to watch. Imo this has confirmed my feelings that this is a very bias committee that doesn’t have interest in the American people’s security, rather that don’t like foreign companies having so much influence in America. As long as the committee doesn’t go after other social media apps that collect extreme amounts of data like Facebook and Insta, I can’t take their reasoning seriously. Plus the committee was not better prepared than when they spoke to Zuckerberg. It was just as poorly researched and more accusatory rather than curious. The fact that they said I dont believe you too the CEO is so ridiculous; they didn’t get the answered they wanted to they said what they believed, with no evidence.

It’s that the CCP had granted itself the legal rights that all data must be shared with the state. When you are an authoritarian government, you can change the law anytime.

      Career:
      -Short stint at Goldman Sachs after Harvard
      -DTS. A fairly infamous Kremlin linked company in its own right - Which was an early investor in ByteDance bankrolled by Gazprom of all things, during his time there. Investment efforts he led.

      -CEO Tiktok (replaced the previous guys after said was there for only 3 months)
      If he doesn't have close links with the Chinese government. Nobody does. His position at Xiaomi speaks for itself in this matter. And he is ByteDance first, and TikTok second. He was instrumental in getting ByteDance off the ground. ByteDance created TikTok. Owns it. He's the ByteDance man running it for them. The Chinese government's 1% share in ByteDance is classified as a so called "golden share". Able to outvote any other. His "boss" is effectively the CCP.
      Incidentally he not so long ago admitted during an EU investigation that employees TikTok (unspecified which) were accessing the information of European journalists...
      Also ByteDance, like most prominent Chinese companies, literally has an internal CCP committee to oversee the government's interests at the company. The Vice President of ByteDance is the head of this committee.
      And if he ever crosses the government, for example by preventing the CCP access to data on the TikTok platform, then if he stays out of a Chinese jail, then it will only be because he sought asylum outside of China.

He has to be defensive and explain points clearly because of that, though he wasn't allowed to. If someone attempts to kill you, and in self defence you stab him and he dies with no witnesses, and when you're questioned "yes or no did you kill the man?" simply answering yes or no will most definitely get you arrested and charged and sentenced for murder. You have to explain the situation and then people will have to investigate if claims are true and then THEY can decide if you are guilty based on EVIDENCE(which was also not presented at this hearing even though they repeatedly mentioned they have some). You don't just ask did you murder the guy? You have the knife so yes. Yes you did.
