Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri warned on Wednesday that China can access America data through TikTok as he seeks a ban on the popular app.
Mr Hawley, a critic of technology companies, has long argued that TikTok poses a security threat. On Wednesday, he said in a letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen that a former employee for ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, had direct knowledge of the company’s operating practices.
