TikTok faces bans and restrictions in UK and US over security concerns.

The British parliament has decided to block TikTok on all devices on its network, following a similar ban on government devices, due to security concerns. TikTok's spokesperson called the action "misguided" and based on misconceptions about the company. The app has already been banned on official devices in the United States, Canada, Belgium, and the European Commission. TikTok has come under scrutiny due to fears that user data could end up in the hands of the Chinese government, undermining Western security interests.
