Danish public broadcaster advises staff against using TikTok - BBC News
Denmark's public-service broadcaster has advised staff not to have TikTok on their work phones, because of security concerns.
Journalists needing access to the app for research must now ask for permission to use what staff are calling special "TikTok phones".TikTok is run from Singapore but its parent company, ByteDance, is based in Beijing, leading to growing fears, in Europe and the United States, the Chinese government could compel it to spy on users or hand over their data.
"All employees are now advised against using and installing TikTok on work phones," executive Niels Ammitzbøll told DR staff. The BBC has not issued any advice on TikTok and is in fact expanding its use of the app as a platform for news coverage.On Wednesday, TikTok's European arm announced detailed plans it hopes will enhance trust in its data-privacy practices.
