Opinion: When it comes to TikTok, the US is blind
„Any fair mechanism addressing TikTok’s risks should also apply to American companies selling data internationally or to US intelligence services“. It turns out that there is no US law clearly governing the access that Beijing or Moscow-based employees of any tech or social media company have to the personal data of US citizens that use their services. Alex Stamos, former chief security officer of Facebook and Yahoo, demands for a new privacy law for all tech companies in the USA instead of pure populistic attacks on TikTok.
