TikTok executives are ramping up their charm offensive on Washington policymakers and avoid a ban ahead of the China-founded company’s CEO squaring off with House lawmakers at a hearing later this month.
The popular video-based platform is looking to persuade Washington that its new entity called TikTok U.S. Data Security will be walled off from China’s prying eyes.
The Biden administration has not announced a decision about whether to pursue banning the app nationwide, but Ms. Walden showed no signs of discomfort in passing the mic to the China-founded app’s American representative. Mr. Farrell said Oracle would vouch for TikTok’s updated app and deliver it to Apple and Google app stores.
Many lawmakers and tech observers dispute TikTok’s claims about its actions and intentions. Rep. Michael McCaul, Texas Republican, introduced new legislation last month to empower the Biden administration to ban TikTok nationwide.
