The US government should ban TikTok rather than come to a national security agreement with the social media app that might allow it to continue operating in the United States, according to a commissioner at the Federal Communications Commission.

A string of news reports this year about TikTok’s handling of US user data has left Carr with “little confidence there’s a path forward,” he told CNN in a phone interview Tuesday. “Perhaps the deal CFIUS ends up cutting is an amazing, airtight deal, but at this point I have a very, very difficult time looking at TikTok’s conduct thinking we’re going to cut a technical construct that they’re not going to find a way around.

“We are confident that we are on a path to reaching an agreement with the US government that will satisfy all reasonable national security concerns.” Carr, who spoke to CNN from Taiwan during a first-ever visit by an FCC official to that country, said he has not met with CFIUS member agencies or the White House to specifically raise the issue, though he added the topic could have arisen incidentally amid other routine discussions.

yes BAN anything.communist! period!

Obviously they don’t like people with opinions that differ from their own. When did the government become my parent and try to ground me from what I can and cannot see? They don’t even do a good job of hiding all their crazy antics.

Lol

I propose that a programmer make a link so whenever someone download titok in USA, it would upload as vines

America is afraid of Chinese competition. 🤦🏾‍♂️

A campaign to ban regulated Tik Tok, but no regulations for feces book, sorry, facebook or mirrorlickogram, sorry instagram What was that Kurt Vonnegut quip about his worst nightmare and the people he went to school with running the world?

ban biden first please, hes a bigger threat to america than anything else... he defames america everyday

Why? Still exposing too much for your bosses likings

If DJI is leaky and working with the Chinese government then it's not a big leap to get to TikTok or everything from China. Bring silicon back to the US.

Does US employee have access to the Chinese user's data in Microsoft, Oracle, Google, Apple....? And according to the laws, US spy department has all kinds of access to these data.

Please also ban OnlyFansSupport and Patreon

KiraOlbert Please do.. TikTok is biggest national security risk.. a CCPChina tool installed on ever other phone and access to our most impressionable population, kids. It is mind blowing that we allow that app to operate here.

tiktok is a nation security threat, everyone who works in security knows not to install it.

TikTok is the best platform to get actual REAL boots on the ground news

He is aware that banning Tik Tok isn’t an option, right? Being that Trump has held that same position for a few years now.

Butt out. People can decide if they wish to use TikTok.

Most of the TikTok challenges are illegal acts of crime. Cmon now. It’s a toxic AF app.
