TikTok's US future at stake as boss faces Congress showdown

[Social Media]

On Thursday, TikTok's CEO, Shou Zi Chew, will be opening a lion's mouth and placing his own head into it.

He's giving testimony in the US Congress for the first time, a scary thing to do.

And at stake is the future of the phenomenally popular video-sharing app in the US.

"I think that there is a real risk that if this hearing doesn't go well… that could have a massive impact on the future of TikTok," said Chris Stokel-Walker, author of TikTok Boom.

Mr Chew is likely to face a barrage of questions on TikTok's relationship with China, what data it collects, and what it does with it.

He'll also be quizzed on why several journalists were spied on by ByteDance employees - something TikTok has already admitted.

USA  Vs  Tiktoks,   is akin to   USA Vs  Toyota   or   Thailand Vs Toyota 

 

The  locals always have the upper hand.   They had been cooked ( as this case for Tiktoks ) well before whatever hearings they are doing. 

The USA House hearing  is just Faked Show.

The Singaporean CEO representing Tiktoks was there to be grilled and ridiculed. .
