A former executive for Tik Tok's parent company Byte Dance has claimed that the Chinese government "maintained" access to the company's U.S. data. Yintao Yu, who served as the head of engineering for Byte Dance's U.S. operations from August 2017 to November 2018, filed a lawsuit in California Superior Court for San Francisco County earlier this month alleging wrongful termination for serving as a whistleblower exposing what Yu considered to be unethical and illegal practices.
He alleged in a complaint filed on Friday that the Chinese Communist Party has used Byte Dance as a "propaganda tool" to suppress or promote content based on what is favorable to the country's interests.
The complaint alleges that the Chinese government has been able to monitor Byte Dance's work from its headquarters in Beijing and has provided the company with guidance on advancing "core communist values. |
