TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew is set to testify before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on Thursday, his first appearance before a Congressional committee.

With concerns about the ill effects of social media at all-time highs and tensions growing with China, Chew’s congressional testimony will likely be met with a bipartisan buzzsaw.
“Some politicians have started talking about banning TikTok. Now, this could take TikTok away from all 150 million of you,” Chew said in a video Tuesday.

It’s so funny how they are worried about their children and looks like TikTok is the only problem. But do that threatened kids have parents? Finally we found who to blame.
Almost all the questions poured on Chow could be reused to all big tech CEOs. Sounds like Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, etc are all as clean as Snow White. If you want to shut them down, find a better excuse.
With the backwardness of our economy, increment in the price of gas, alarming rates of unemployment.i must confess our country have taken a wrong turns.vividly I don’t know how else to carter for my expenses
F- for the Legal team, especially General Counsel. They made their CEO look like a joke with keep bringing the Project Texas, Singaporean background 🤣🤣
Why is that when I clicked on the “Live Feed” it started at the Asian CA representative in pink (I don’t remember her name) then continued on with the majority of the room being empty as the next speakers went on till the end of the hearing, but then when I go rewind to the beginning of the non-live feed, It became obvious that I had heard most-if not all of these questions already until the Florida Representative (Ms Castor) begins speaking around 83mins into it, which coincidentally begins to explain the legislature that they’re suggesting we implement into law.
I have never seen more misinfo/disinfo, misleading and scam advertising, DMs from fake users trying to phish private information, and blatant privacy breaches in the form of video, microphone and keystroke surveillance than I have from Facebook and Instagram.
If a parent can’t keep their child off tick-tock, how in the hell do they expect Tik Tok to keep that child off the app? The representative from Colorado is exceptionally embarrassing.
Stop letting social media raise your children, or change the laws for all social media platforms. This is a social media and parenting problem, not a Tiktok problem.
Just look at the people behind Chew. They’d fit right in with any mob.
Lol the tiktok blackout challenge topic is ridiculous.
My friends used to do this in the 90s. Dumb i know but you dont need tiktok to be stupid
Tiktok cant be held accountable for people doing stupid shit. Freedom of speech
How is it Tiktok’s fault that these children are doing dumb things. It should be the parents fault if anything for not watching your children! Also the representative of Georgia is a joke, the tiktok guy is practically explaining nuclear chemistry to fossils. It’s embarrassing we have a bunch of two year olds in congress.
How do none of the congressman know how the internet works
Burgess was actually a nice dude he wasn’t a dick about his questions I got mad respect for him
I like how they are distracting the people with this hearing instead of focusing on how trumps indictment will have consequences with other Republicans
US congress in this video is humiliating human morality and intelligence…
What we’re seeing here is New Mccarthyism when there’s relentless hysteria and fear-mongering around Communist infiltration, not to mention severe Sinophobia.
In fact, the blackout challenge actually originated on Facebook
The United States is the birthplace of pornographic videos in the world. This has a great impact on children and human beings. I don’t care about some young people who like to dance and listen to music. I find it strange.
Not really a fans of tiktok, but i think Bilirakis is pushing all the parents responsibility to TikTok. It can be any of the social media platform. If they suicide it is 200% due to their family & friends environment.
