The Justice Department and FBI are investigating TikTok, including previously disclosed allegations that company employees spied on journalists, a law enforcement official with knowledge of the matter told NBC News. The disclosure comes as the Biden administration is demanding TikTok’s Chinese-owned parent company, ByteDance, sell the video-sharing app or see it banned in the United States over concerns that China can use TikTok to spy on Americans or influence U.S. public opinion. |
