TikTok will open a new data centre in Ireland to fight against the accusations of spying for the Chinese government.

The anti-chinese propaganda is continuing and the media always tryies to put everything chinese under a bad light. All of this done with the trope of "national security risks". I don't like social media, be it TikTok, Facebook or Twitter, for how it is built and all the privacy concerns but all of the problems the media has with TikTok is because it is chinese. What do you think about all of this?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The video-sharing giant is also allowing a European security company access to audit cyber-security and data protection controls.

A key concern of European security officials is the risk that the data that TikTok holds on its users would be accessed by the Chinese state.

Authorities imposing bans have warned that emails, contacts and other communication could be accessed by Beijing as a result of having the app on devices.

Project Clover has tasked NCC Group, a global cyber-security company with offices across Europe, to scrutinise TikTok's data controls and report any incidents.

"Our objective scrutiny, monitoring and assurance means platform users in Europe and the UK can have confidence in the enhanced data security standards that TikTok is setting, which go above and beyond European regulatory requirements," he said.

TikTok said that NCC Group would identify and respond to any "suspicious or anomalous access attempts" and would work on enhancing security.
