Due to growing concerns about data storage security and the possible transfer of user information to the Chinese government, several countries have decided to ban TikTok, either totally, partially or temporarily.
Under this suspicion, recently Joe Biden, president of the United States, issued a ban on this social network conditional on its property being transferred by its current owners.
However, the popular application owned by the Chinese company Bytedance, has ensured that it has not shared user data with the government for a long time and is managed completely independently.
CEO on the defense
Even a few days ago, Shou Chew, CEO of TikTok, appeared before the Energy and Commerce Commission of the United States House of Representatives, to emphasize that his company is not an arm of the Chinese government and his work in relation to the protection of data.Tiktok is currently banned on government devices in 37 countries.

Total: India, Indonesia, Taiwan and Afghanistan
Partial: Canada, European Union, United Kingdom, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, New Zealand and the United States
