TikTok confirms that journalists' data was accessed by employees of its parent company | CNN Business

TikTok user data from the two journalists, who worked for the Financial Times and BuzzFeed, was accessed while ByteDance employees were investigating potential employee leaks to the press, according to the company. The employees involved, two based in the United States and two in China, were fired following an investigation conducted on behalf of the company by an outside law firm, the CEOs of TikTok and ByteDance revealed to employees in two separate emails Thursday.

” In response to the incident, TikTok said it has restructured its internal audit and risk teams, and removed access to US user data for those teams, according to the spokesperson. “We take data security incredibly seriously, and we will continue to enhance our access protocols, which have already been significantly improved and hardened since this incident took place,” Oberwetter said.

the instruction must come from very top management. Maybe the CEO. They cannot just fire four people and get away with it!

Wow. How could anything like this ever happen ?

Tiktok the app for incompetent losers!

False pysops. Try to “prove” it isn’t CCP controlled when the entire world knows different. Of course, Fake News CNN is here to serve its CCP puppet masters

Lol. An app owned by the Chinese government no respecting journalists? Who would have thought. Sad to see CNN running defense for China.

You mean improperly exposed just the tip of the ice burg?

Hmm, nothing to do with Chinese Govt then?

Do you really believe them? CCP always lies!

If the 4 spies were working for the Chinese government CNN's headline would reflect the fact; we can quietly assume these were CIA spies fired by TikTok.

Will there be TikTok Files?

Yeah, I'll trust a Chinese company just as much as I'll trust the well used hooker saying I don't need a condom. Chinese News Network/ Communist News Network.

I'm sure these employees just randomly decided to access journalist information. This isn't coming from somewhere else, and they are just the scapegoats.
