Getting screwed with many countries of the world, including India and America, now looks expensive for China. Australia has also made up its mind to take action after Chinese company Tittock was banned in India and threatened with Trump. Australian security agencies have begun an investigation into allegations of data theft at Ticketock and endangering the security of the country.
Australian PM ordered an inquiry
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported on Sunday that Prime Minister Scott Morrison has asked the country's intelligence agencies to investigate whether the Chinese app is a security threat. In addition, Australia's Ministry of Home Affairs is exploring what steps can be taken against the app once privacy or data security risks are detected.
Tiktok gave clarification
A number of Australian MPs have called for a ban on Tiktok. The app is owned by Chinese tech firm BiteDance. Ticktock has said that users do not have to worry about data security. He told ABC that he was not handing over Australian users' data to any foreign government, including China.
Investigation on Tik Tok continues in Japan
Amid tension from China, investigations are continuing against several Chinese apps including TicketLock in Japan. Last week some Japanese lawmakers demanded a ban on the app. It is believed that the US and Japan may soon take major action against Ticktock.
