As it will be remembered, after the USA once again drew attention to TikTok’s activities, many countries, including the USA, banned the use of the Chinese application for some government officials. Specifically, it can no longer be installed on work phones and tablets and employees’ devices in the Danish Ministry of Defense, Canada. European Commission.

What do they say in the Ministry of Culture?

Asked whether Ukraine sees the need to impose restrictions on Tiktok, Minister of Culture and Information Policy Oleksandr Tkachenko said in an interview with the Interfax-Ukraine agency: “I used Tiktok for two days before the war and then I realized it wasn’t mine, not because it wasn’t interesting, but because it was a completely different content. Not Telegram channels, not other social networks. The question of why such a trend started in the banning of the use of tiktok in government institutions needs to be investigated. “.

There is no information yet about any specific actions and plans.

Note that in November 2022, FBI Director Christopher Wray stated: Chinese authorities may be using TikTok to collect data on millions of users. The company completely controls the algorithm of its social network and impresses the user by manually adding certain videos to the feed. Given that the Chinese government is undemocratic and demands complete capitulation from all local companies, there is no doubt that the government in the US is taking full advantage of this.
