TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew testifies during a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, on the platform's consumer privacy and data security practices and impact on children, Thursday, March 23, 2023, on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Chew attempted to persuade lawmakers not to pursue a ban on the app or force Chinese parent company ByteDance to give up its ownership stake, testifying that TikTok prioritizes the safety of young users. He says the company plans to store all U.S. user data on servers maintained and owned by the software giant Oracle.Chew, 40, is a native of Singapore, where he lives with his wife, Vivian Kao, and their two children.
Most Americans likely first heard of Chew when he released a video this week speaking directly to TikTok's U.S. users, she said,"so he doesn't have the same reputation as someone we know, and don't have sense of who he is.” Enberg said there was little Chew could say to convince lawmakers that TikTok is not monitored or influenced in some way by the Chinese government.
