Specifically, Alicia Kearns, chairwoman of the British Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee, stated in recent hours that users and consumers are being " naive " about the threat posed by TikTok, a Chinese -made application that some characterize as a kind of Great More or less sneaky brother.\
On previous occasions, the United States authorities have focused on this matter, and have even recommended that citizens uninstall TikTok from their mobile phones. Despite the various accusations of theft of personal information, the company denies these extremes. However, there are those who focus not on the application, but on the Chinese government directly.
In this regard, the president of the United States, Joe Biden , has affirmed that he has not yet made a decision on whether to prohibit the use of the application owned by the Chinese company ByteDance, but affirmed that he does not have it on his phone. "I don't know, but I know that I don't have it on my mobile phone," Biden said in response to questions from the press at the White House.
The use of TikTok is prohibited on mobile devices used by government employees , including those used by the president. In December, Congress approved a law to that end, but several Democratic and Republican legislators want to go further and consider that the application should be completely banned in the North American country.
