Joe Biden, the newly inaugurated President of the United States, made his first appearance on social media during the Super Bowl on Sunday, choosing the controversial platform TikTok to reach out to younger voters. Despite long-standing security concerns surrounding the use of TikTok, Biden's campaign viewed this as an opportunity to engage with a significant portion of the population.
However, it is important to note that the ban on using TikTok on government devices remains in place, in accordance with the stance taken by previous administrations. The concerns primarily stem from the ownership of TikTok by the Chinese company ByteDance. Some US officials fear that China could exploit its national security laws to gain access to personal information collected by TikTok from its users.
