- The House Energy and Commerce Committee is hearing from intelligence officials Thursday about concerns of TikTok's parent company, ByteDance, and its ties to China that raises national security concerns. A bipartisan bill would require TikTok to separate itself from ByteDance or risk being banned from U.S. app stores. CBS News legal contributor Jessica Levinson has more.

I don’t expect the people from “freedom” world the mighty USA, need to use VPN to visit an app like the “no freedom” China citizens do.
So why claim all these beautiful words or concepts? Like free market or freedom of speech?
USA are now banning electric cars from China too, and local companies can’t buy the batteries made in China, did the batteries spy US too?
Let be honest, USA is the most double standard country, accept it.
I'm more worried about what companies like Google and Facebook are doing with our data.
😂😂😂😂 silly statement
@@4g64spyder Not really. They collaborate with the Feds that can literally ruin ur life. China cant really do much at all.
atleast they are not selling data to CHINA

How about congress start doing their job,by stopping weapons sells without their approval
“Without their approval?” Funny
You're replying to the wrong video...
The fact I'm an American citizen with constitutional rights is enough approval. That I'm an army veteran is a bonus but unnecessary
sounds like something a commy spy would say 😏
Wdym? Its our legal right to have weapons, this tik tok ban is absolutely ridiculous though
Ban a company, but not cigarettes for causing cancer or toxins in our food and water?
This is, unfortunately, the guns vs cars debate all over again.
Yes both are dangerous. But they are not looked at the same way. Cigarettes are already heavily regulated, though, TikTok is not.

Great. Just label anything conservatives don't like as "threat to national security," and then the government can take it down.

They should ban all corn websites, dating websites that promote cheating,ig and others that promote drugs also.

Cheating is a choice, you can’t blame it on the social media. If someone is going to cheat, then they’ll do it either way
@Jayishere192 None. Just don’t ban psychedelic and drug websites like OP suggests.
How about don't participate in the websites?

Yes exactly! These things are a disease to society.
Funniest thing is that by banning TikTok for China reasons, the government is becoming more like China lol! Big Brother now gets to choose what you can or cannot use. Today it's TikTok, tomorrow what will it be?
TikTok is ruining children's attention spans and is brainwashing kids with degenerative content. It absolutely needs to get banned.
I disagree. They are targeting foreign apps compared to native ones. A big brother situation would be getting rid of apps in our own nation that have differing opinions which they are not doing. So they are not controlling our thoughts rather they are afraid of what influence China could have on the youth. Which I would rather not have the most influential app having connections with the Chinese Communist Party.
Hopefully Roblox.

To be fair, China banned all of the American apps a long time ago. It’s only fair we return the favor.

Ban twitter as well.
lol what? China has no stake in X, which is the reason TikTok might be banned. Other than your bias against Elon Musk, what real reason do you have to call for a ban of X?
I never use Twitter

China has responded:
"If the United States becomes nervous and anxious whenever it hears the word "China", where will the confidence of a major country lie?
If the United States only allows itself to maintain prosperity and does not allow other countries to develop properly, where will the international justice be?
If the United States insists on monopolizing the high end of the value chain and only allows China to stay at the low end, where will fair competition be?
If the United States always says one thing and does another, where will the credibility of a major country be?
The methods used to suppress China are constantly being renovated, the list of unilateral sanctions is constantly being extended, and the level of incrimination has reached an unimaginable level."
That's just a cop out. Has nothing to do with China. It's banning free speech. If so be, then let us go back to products Made in the USA instead of everything labeled Made in China
funny coming from a country who builds it's buildings out of Styrofoam and spit.
TikTok is a trojan horse from the enemy.
I 100 percent agree!!!!! I've been seeing it for months.
Congress is concerned about foreign misinformation? That's funny! We usually rely upon American news outlets to provide all of the misinformation we can stand!
TikTok needs to go. Does more harm then good. 1st amendment isnt covered with private operators. Thats why youtube, yahoo and google can censor.

The issue is that tiktok is controlled by a hostile foreign power.
You must be china
Banned alcohol once. Had a whole constitutional amendment about it.
None of those belong to the CCP
If it’s a security threat for our country, by all means go for it. No one likes to be frisked at the airport, but if it’s going to keep us safe, go for it. And yes I agree this would have to apply to all companies (even domestic ones)… companies should have no right to invade our privacy or collect our data.
Google will prob remove this comment 😂
@@B86432 lol 😂
I think you missed the point, it’s not about data privacy, but about data being governed by China. A huge difference. None of the other platforms give access to our private data to China. If TikTok severs the Chinese connection, they will be treated equally!
You don't have to give them sensitive data
You have no privacy if you’re using the internet or a cellphone nothing you do is private ever every bit of data is monitored and vetted constantly.
Do it! The things that tiktok have taught kids horrible things. Plz it's the biggest cringe worthy thing on the internet.
he said the kids will use a VPN
Because the us can't make money off of it in taxes
Most stuff sold in Walmart are made in China. Can we say it has "connections" to China? Nike is made in China. Can we call it a chinese connection too? Our government can't protect our borders, so now can it even attempt to "protect" us on the internet lmao Just my 2 cents 😅🤔
Finally🎉 they should all ban social media.🎉
Your using social media with this comment. TH-cam is social media
Clark Kent You don't know what you're talking about, do you?

In that logic. I think China should ban Tesla and iPhones in China, cause they got cameras everywhere and sending data to the CIA/FBI. The whole world should just disconnect.
Congress is still trying to ban TikTok??? 🤣🤣🤣
Not trying anymore if they passed it. (Which they have.)

@@Michael-pi8ps They can influence elections by, say, promoting content related to Biden and suppressing all content related to Trump. China is doing that already in many countries - the most pro-China candidate gets the most exposure on social media. That's just 1 threat, you want to know more?
@@Michael-pi8psWhat is the threat of a foreign adversary having access to almost every cellular device in the country?
It’s not data leak that they concern. It’s uncontrolled public opinion the us is worrying about.
Funny. If that were the case, then you'd expect X or Facebook to face the same ban bill. Got any other crazy theories?

There has to be a balance between "free expression" and National Security. If someone is exploiting free speech through a platform as China is doing with TikTok, which is affecting National Security, National Security should take priority, then TikTok. Free Speech is not being banned, just one platform used for that speech. It's likened to turning off a microphone, just get another... The conversation may take place elsewhere without ban.
BAN IT! I am sure another company can make a similar app.

Tictok already violates everyone’s 1st amendment rights
how? you have a choice to use it, I don't use it, and even if it does somehow violate your first amendment why would you want another bill disregarding the first amendment?
TikTok is pretty toxic and drama filled.
Truth
Twitter/X is worse imo
Social media is the most unsocial activity a person can do. You’re literally looking at a screen and not making eye contact with another human being.
On the one hand it lets you connect with people you could never otherwise meet. On the other hand, I am shocked when anyone replies to someone else with any amount of civility. 9/10 times you're right
I've met people I would've never met if it weren't for tiktok
@@typical_republican654 Which is really cool! Social media can be used for good
Maybe, but there's no denying that nearly everyone is disingenuous online. You're not meeting someone new. You're meeting a facade who's sole intention is to manipulate you. Nearly everyone online is trying to convince people they are something that they are not, and easily avoid accountability, something that's much harder to do in real life.@@saramae9878
So wtf are you doing on here then? ☠️
But if you use a vpn you can still use it
I’m glad it’s going to be banned. That app is just full of brain rot 😂
It's not the best app considering how it uses users' information, although, banning it kind of fringes on freedom of speech. Either way, there will always be an alternative as we have seen with many social media sites before.
As soon as I heard about this, I totally understood how and why they were doing this, and honestly was kinda confused with how many people were unquestioningly calling it unconstitutional. There is a case for freedom of speech, but it isn’t at all certain to work, especially when possibly at odds with national security, which is definitely something that has the potential to supersede freedom of speech.
It is not banning speech it is creating US oversight, to move the data traffic to the US. We are creating nationalized data routing to secure the western powers cyber infrastructure in many different ways, this is one, a security risk because lots of people told not to use it because of possible espionage use it anyway because of its popularity.
Probably not. Brandon embraces & emboldens Tik Tok into The White House
he’s banned it from government phones but i’m sure research is hard for right wingers
Mr Greenblatt wants to silence TikTok because he wants to silence dissent on Israeli war crimes.

#SaveTikTok
@@zaquarviousgaffney367hey 2 year old.
Ban it
Stop putting old people in office.
they probably can't legally. But I wish it was gone. It is such a waste of human time.
Congress has the power to regulate 'interstate commerce,' and since the bill only deals with entities' selling or transfer of American's personal information to overseas adversaries, it doesn't run afoul of the Constitution. The 1st Amendment says you have the right to say something and the government can't stop you. Whatever users currently say on TikTok, there is no legal burden on them saying those things anywhere else. I still have a feeling that this is gonna die on the floor, 'cause that's how these things usually go, but at the very least a new company (or at least one that is no longer HQ'd in China) will be hopefully subject to US law or the laws of another state that is not our adversary.
@HobbitJack1 I agree. The post presented this as "ban tiktok". That's what I referred to. How would the US enforce someone accessing a software package. Can't be done. Granted, I would love nothing more than for some "less" social media for the teens I work with in juvenile court.
@@HobbitJack1then that would bring into question the freedom of assembly.
@@Michael-pi8ps The legal question which would come before a court would basically be 'Does banning (though I find it far more likely that the platform be divested instead) a social media platform *for being involved with adversarial foreign powers* place an undue burden on the ability of citizens to associate with whom they choose?'
I find it unlikely that a court would rule that way, due to the requirements that a platform be owned and operated by a company under the influence or operating primarily from an adversarial power. The state would be able to argue that users would be able to freely associate with the same people on other platforms, and I don't see how (again, with the condition that the platform is owned by adversarial powers) that places an undue burden on the ability to associate.
Of course, I'm not a lawyer and this is nothing but conjecture and my understanding of the Constitution's interpretation of the rights (the court has indeed ruled Freedom of Association to be a necessary part of the Freedom of Speech) protected from infringement in the 1st Amendment.
I use the undue burden standard, because if I recall correctly that is also the standard applied to the ability of local governments to limit the time and location of peaceful protests to certain areas and times within their jurisdiction.
Israel is calling the shots.
Just do it already, ffs
tik tok has made billions off of" Americans " and they(tiktok) will be hurt, they are a big company making big money and could care less about their (average American) livelihood

Also the Government is mad because TikTok doesn't pay their demand$$ . They made them put adds in TikTok . We will just make a new App .
there are so many other problems in this country and they are only worried about an app?
No the government can not ban this company or any other company it’s unconstitutional. People read up on your laws.
It not meant to be a ban but creating US oversight, to move the data traffic to US control or separating friendly traffic from foreign adversaries networks which will take years to construct as much of it is now shared networks. We are creating nationalized data routing to secure the western powers cyber infrastructure in many different ways, this is one, a security risk because lots of people told not to use it because of possible espionage use it anyway because of its popularity.
Tiktok can store all data in AWS US so how can these data being transfer to China when it store in US company cloud

Does the Commerce Committee ever consider the blowback from such a ban? Example, China bans iphone sales in retaliation citing similar concern. And what will this do to our ballooning trade deficit? I'm more concerned with what my gov can do with my private data than a foreign entity, which is nothing.
We already said Huawei cant sell devices in the US, and nothing happened in retalliation.
The problem isn't user data, it is the fact that China could use TikTok to spread pro-China propaganda. China outright banning iPhone sales would be a massive escalation. China is in a rough economic state as of recently, they are in no shape to do anything as drastic. If anything, banning TikTok would just level the playing field. US social media apps are either banned or heavily restricted in China, is it really fair that Chinese apps are allowed in the US?
@@trunphin Sep 7, 2023 - China has banned the use of iPhones for central government officials. Shares in aapl tumbled on the news.

TikTok in US,but FB not in China.
But the Supreme Court case, Citizens United, stated that corporations do in fact have 1st Amendment rights.
The 1st Amendment protects everyone within the United States. A person of Chinese citizenship could walk down the street singing the praises of China and wishing for the downfall of America; and it would be legal.
The Communist Party in China does not have a 1st Amendment Right. And maybe since we’re on the brink of war with them, we should not let them have access to most cellular devices in the country.
