A House vote on a bill that could decide TikTok’s future in the United States is set for Wednesday. The proposed measure would ban TikTok from app stores unless it broke off from its Chinese regime-linked parent company, ByteDance.
Leaders of the House panel on the Chinese Communist Party are also demanding that TikTok stop its pressure campaign on users ahead of Wednesday’s vote. At the same time, Americans remain split on this issue.
Just how large of a threat is TikTok to the United States? NTD spoke to Bradley Thayer, a senior fellow at the Center for Security Policy. He is also a founding member of the Committee on the Present Danger: China, and co-authored the book “Understanding the China Threat.”
