This young CEO shows more knowledgeable and good manner than those people who are questioning him

1980. Toshiba
2013. Alston
2020. Huawei
2023. TikTok
Any company growing stronger and better than US would be labeled as a "threat to national security" and would be destroyed.

Not a fan of TikTok but I am disappointed at the questions by the Congress. They show a collective ignorance of technologies.

The TikTok CEO did well. Congressmen were not there to find out the truth with meaningful impartial questions but to throw out their false accusations without evidence, with biases, hypocrisy, racism, and hostility. They didn't allow him time to answer the questions, and forced the CEO to give a yes/no answer to a multi-layers questions, then blamed company for the deaths of some young users, and then blamed him for not monitoring/controlling the harmful content at one point but then asked him to allow the content of Uighur genoxxde and Tiananmen Square massaxxre. These incompetent law makers are the reasons why the country is in a very bad shape.

The amount of people in congress that don’t understand technology is concerning

Proud to be Singaporean and He is handsome

[jaaadeeeeful]

Funny how an Asian has to start with his western experiences to be seen as legitimate and trustworthy

[glenwjohnson]

This CEO is just wasting his precious time, those people have already made up their minds to ban Tik Tok, it isn't about security reasons.

[User-sssss-]

This young man was showing more educated than those others! He is good fit to be the President!

[Xaler]

Why not question FB & YT on their algorithm too? Social media risk is on all platform. A lot of the questions asked by these congressmen are non -related & disappointing too.

When the U.S. can’t beat their competitors, they ban the product😉 The U.S. stoops this low…never imagine I would get to see it in my lifetime😮

[lokechanmun]

America has greater challenges to deal with .... like gun violence, drugs, racism, police brutality, national debt, growing wealth gap and declining academic performance ... all these pose greater national security risks than Tiktok and greater harm to the future of young Americans.

[donlee.]

Imagine both parties attack tiktok, but can’t fix their own elections.

[gt]

if after all he has done and they still ban tiktok - it shows the kind of insecurity usa is feeling rather than true concerns.

[geraldkhoo]

Don't think they care about what he said. They just wanted to know if TikTok will be sold or banned.

[natalieseeto]

Til Tok is no difference to Facebook or YouTube. Why is there no security concern over these two apps?

[Bubblethedog-of]

It’s so weird they keep asking what CCP wanted in China, his Singaporean…. It’s like asking Canadian about United States policies😂

[HAHA-pdvo]

This is one of issues which shows that America is really an evil empire in this world.

[jcjocelyn]

He had answered most of their questions before they question him😂😂

Save your breathe, these guys has already decided what to do with you.
