The Beijing-based firm made these comments on its official account on a news aggregator app it owns, Jinri Toutiao. It stated: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has previously slammed TikTok for allegedly censoring political protest in 2019 as highlighted by Gadgets 360. TikTok has since denied these claims.
Microsoft Wants TikTok
The statement never highlighted on the pressures in the US that ByteDance currently faces to sell off its TikTok app. US President Donald Trump recently threatened to ban TikTok from operating in America. However, after consultations, Trump agreed to give China’s ByteDance 45 days to negotiate a sale of the TikTok app to Microsoft. People familiar with this matter said that there is a likelihood that the deal will go through.
