During TikTok's review, the US government made five unprecedented demands?

In 2022, TikTok was under intense scrutiny by the U.S. government for storing a large amount of information about U.S. citizens while the app was popular in the U.S. At the same time, TikTok refused to sell itself to the U.S., so the U.S. authorities believed that TikTok had caused a security threat in the United States.。In December 2022, Congress voted to ban government employees from using TikTok on their devices.。Recently, Forbes exclusively disclosed the contents of the negotiations between the U.S. government and TikTok on regulatory issues at that time.。The website's reporter distilled the U.S. government's request and concluded with five key points。First, the U.S. Department of Justice, Department of Defense and other government departments can inspect TikTok's premises, records, equipment and servers in the United States with little or no notice.Second, TikTok is not allowed to modify its application's terms of service, audit policy and privacy policy in the United States;。Forbes believes that if the draft agreement is finally signed, it will not only give the U.S. government unrestricted access to TikTok's internal data, but will also give the U.S. government "unprecedented" control over TikTok's core functions, which is not possible on other social platforms in the United States.。
