TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew is appealing to U.S. Users Ahead of testimony in the House Energy and Commerce Committee this week. He emphasizes the large scale of TikTok users, small and medium-sized businesses, and its own employees in the U.S. that rely on the company. The message may preview his appeal to lawmakers Thursday, where he will be faced with questions about the ability of its Chinese parent company ByteDance, and the Chinese government, to access U.S. user information collected by the app. TikTok says it has worked to create a risk mitigation plan to ensure that U.S. data doesn't get into the hands of a foreign adversary through its app.
