TikTok the Spy
Lawmakers interviewed the chief executive of TikTok on Thursday, looking for connections to China and the possibility that Beijing could use the app to spy on Americans.
“That’s right, we don’t need a Chinese company stealing our data and spying on us. That’s a job for American companies,” Al Franken said, leading the audience in a chant of “U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!”
The Punchiest Punchlines (TikTok Edition)
“Everyone is nervous about TikTok because they think all of our information is being delivered to China. In response, TikTok said, ‘Well, it’s not delivery — it’s D’Amelio.’” — JIMMY FALLON
“That’s right, the C.E.O. of TikTok testified. Then, of course, the head of Instagram Reels showed up and said all the exact same stuff, just not as cool.” — JIMMY FALLON
“The hearing was actually fun, because every time TikTok’s C.E.O. took a sip of water, somebody slapped him with a tortilla.” — JIMMY FALLON
