0:31Now PlayingFormer Vice President Mike Pence said the US should ban TikTok, calling it a platform that allowed the Chinese government to obtain data on Americans without their knowledge.
“We ought to be banning TikTok. TikTok is a platform for the Chinese Communist government. They are collecting data on Americans every single day,” Pence said Friday in an interview with Bloomberg Television. “Young Americans need to know that their privacy is being compromised by TikTok.”
Pence also delivered a jab at one of his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
“I know that one of my competitors Vivek Ramaswamy in the Republican primary he had rightly described Tiktok as a digital fentanyl for American youth, and this week he signed up for Tiktok. He said he’d met with one of their executives and they changed his mind,” Pence said. “Well they are never going to change my mind.”
