Bill overview
This resolution recognizes the significant national security risks posed by foreign adversary-controlled social media applications, specifically TikTok. It highlights concerns about data collection practices by ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company, which is based in China and subject to Chinese laws that could compel data disclosure to the Chinese government. The resolution emphasizes the potential for espionage, surveillance, and manipulation of information, citing intelligence community assessments and government actions to address these risks. Congress has determined that ByteDance and TikTok pose an unacceptable risk to U.S. national security.
