Due to security concerns, the EU's executive body has forbidden thousands of its employees from using TikTok. The Chinese-owned social video app has criticised this decision as "misguided" and based on "fundamental misconceptions."
The decision may have been made because TikTok, a popular social media app owned by a Chinese company, has faced scrutiny over its data collection practices and potential ties to the Chinese government.
It is not uncommon for organizations to restrict the use of certain apps or software on corporate devices in order to maintain the security and confidentiality of sensitive information. This decision by the EU Commission may be seen as a precautionary measure to protect against potential cybersecurity risks.
