特朗普总统表示,他将在美国禁止TikTok

2020-08-01 20:35   美国新闻网   - 

总统唐纳德·特朗普他告诉记者,他计划周五晚上从佛罗里达飞回家时,通过行政机关在美国禁止TikTok应用。

特朗普说:“我们禁止他们进入美国。”

该应用程序允许用户拍摄和分享自己的视频短片以及伴奏音乐,由中国公司字节跳动所有。这种关系导致特朗普政府以及两党议员指责该应用是一种安全威胁

总统说他会在周六签署一些东西,但没有具体说明他是否会通过行政命令来行动。特朗普称这一决定为“离职”,并坚决拒绝了有关微软收购TikTok的附带协议的报道。

当被问及对此有何评论时,一位TikTok的发言人告诉美国广播公司新闻:“事实就是这样:1亿美国人来到TikTok是为了娱乐和交流,尤其是在流感大流行期间。”仅今年一年,我们的美国团队就雇佣了近1000名员工,我们很自豪能在全美范围内再雇佣10000名员工从事高薪工作。我们的10亿美元创造者基金支持通过我们的平台建立生计的美国创造者。美国用户数据存储在美国,员工访问受到严格控制。TikTok的最大投资者来自美国。我们致力于保护用户的隐私和安全,同时继续努力为家庭带来欢乐,为在我们平台上创造的人带来有意义的职业。"

据估计,TikTok在美国有6500万到8000万用户。

美国公民自由联盟,一个总部设在纽约市的非营利倡导组织,说禁止像TikTok这样的应用“是对自由表达的一种威胁,在技术上也是不切实际的。”

特朗普当天早些时候在前往佛罗里达州之前对记者发表讲话时威胁要禁用该应用程序,但他没有承诺采取任何具体行动,他说,“我们正在看TikTok,我们可能会禁用TikTok。”

总统说:“我们会看到发生什么,但我们正在寻找许多关于TikTok的替代方案。”

中国的视频分享社交网络服务不仅引发了共和党人的恐惧。根据一封电子邮件,民主党全国委员会本月早些时候也警告成员不要使用TikTok获得美国有线电视新闻网。

本月早些时候,TikTok的一位发言人告诉ABC新闻,该公司“由一位美国CEO领导,在美国拥有数百名员工和安全、安保、产品和公共政策等领域的主要领导。我们的首要任务就是为用户推广安全可靠的应用体验。”

7月15日,特朗普的幕僚长马克·梅多斯(Mark Meadows)表示:“许多政府官员都在关注国家安全风险,因为这与TikTok、微信和其他有可能暴露国家安全的应用有关,尤其是与外国对手收集美国公民信息有关的应用。”

美国不会是第一个禁止跆拳道的主要国家。印度在6月下旬禁止了该应用。
 

President Trump says he will ban TikTok in United States

PresidentDonald Trumptold reporters that he plans to ban the TikTok app in the United States through executive authority while flying home from Florida on Friday evening.

"We're banning them from the United States," Trump said.

The app, which allows users to film and share short videos of themselves along to accompanying music, is owned by the Chinese company ByteDance. The relationship has caused the Trump administration, as well as lawmakers across both aisles, to accuse the app of being a security threat

The president said he would sign something as soon as Saturday, without specifying whether he was going to act through an executive order. Trump called the decision "severance" and firmly rejected the reported spinoff deal involving Microsoft buying TikTok.

When asked for comment, a TikTok spokesperson told ABC News: "These are the facts: 100 million Americans come to TikTok for entertainment and connection, especially during the pandemic. We've hired nearly 1,000 people to our U.S. team this year alone, and are proud to be hiring another 10,000 employees into great paying jobs across the US. Our $1 billion creator fund supports U.S. creators who are building livelihoods from our platform. TikTok U.S. user data is stored in the U.S., with strict controls on employee access. TikTok's biggest investors come from the U.S. We are committed to protecting our users' privacy and safety as we continue working to bring joy to families and meaningful careers to those who create on our platform."

TikTok has an estimated 65 million to 80 million users in the United States.

The American Civil Liberties Union, a New York City-based nonprofit advocacy organization,saidbanning an app like TikTok "is a danger to free expression and technologically impractical."

Trump threatened to ban the app while speaking to reporters before leaving for Florida earlier in the day, but did not commit to any specific actions, saying, "We're looking at TikTok, we may be banning TikTok."

"We’ll see what happens, but we're looking at a lot of alternatives with respect to TikTok," the president said.

The Chinese video-sharing social networking service hasn't just triggered fear among Republicans. The Democratic National Committee also warned members against using TikTok earlier this month, according to an emailobtainedby CNN.

Earlier this month, a TikTok spokesperson told ABC News that the company is "led by an American CEO, with hundreds of employees and key leaders across safety, security, product, and public policy here in the U.S. We have no higher priority than promoting a safe and secure app experience for our users."

On July 15, Trump's chief of staff Mark Meadows said, "There are a number of administration officials who are looking at the national security risk as it relates to TikTok, WeChat and other apps that have the potential for national security exposure, specifically as it relates to the gathering of information on American citizens by a foreign adversary."

The United States would not be the first major country to ban TikTok. India banned the app in late June.
