Canadian intelligence chief David Vigneault has become the latest Western official to warn against the use of Chinese-owned social media app TikTok.
In an interview with CBC News, Vigneault said he would “absolutely not recommend someone” to use TikTok. He further said that it was part of China’s plan to acquire personal information of people across the world.
“My answer as director of [the Canadian Security Intelligence Service] is that there is a very clear strategy on the part of the government of China … to be able to acquire … personal information from anyone around the world,” said CSIS Director Vigneault.
