Lawmakers blasted the UK government for sharing 'confidential' information in private messages to TikTok execs

Insiderinternal conversations between TikTok and senior government officials from January to June 2020, when the video app was reportedly negotiating to base its global headquarters in London.

Elmore added: "There are now serious questions that need to be answered by the UK government ... We must all be concerned that strictly confidential information of national importance is being willingly shared with social media companies. Andrew Lewer, a member of the China Research Group of Conservative MPs launched by senior Tories last year to shape policy on China, was surprised by how the government acted.

"Some elements of these conversations, as reported, would be, at the very least, difficult to envisage happening now, even though it is less than a year later. They also illustrate the growing tension between China as a market for UK plc and its status as a human-rights abuser on a vast scale."

SAI Has Johnson revealed the leaker from Cabinet meetings and decisions last year? Now more leaks / confidential info. The Govt needs to get a grip on these problems. SkyNews

techinsider LOL, why not just uss CCP as a proxy for inner communication!

We go our own problems here in the US. If this is all the UK has to worry about then they should consider themselves lucky.

Absolutely nothing about TikTok is —nor should one assume said material to be— private.
