PALO ALTO, U.S./HONG KONG -- TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew faced withering questions from U.S. lawmakers Thursday over allegations of the company's ties to the Chinese Communist Party and spying by Beijing.
"We do not trust TikTok will ever embrace American values, values for freedom, human rights and innovation," Cathy McMorris Rodgers, the Republican chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said in her opening remarks at the hearing.
