This information has emerged as part of the lawsuit filed by TikTok against the United States government.

SINGAPORE: While the founder of Bytedance, Zhang Yiming, has retained his Chinese citizenship, he has made Singapore his home base for the past few years.

But TikTok has also been under scrutiny from the US government over the past few years over national security concerns. A law was signed in April stating the app would be banned unless TikTok was sold to another entity. Following this, the company vowed to put up a legal fight, citing infringement on the free speech rights of its users.
