HONG KONG—TikTok, the buzzy short-video platform owned by Chinese technology giant Bytedance Ltd., said today it would pull out of Hong Kong within a week in light of “recent developments” in the city.
Last week, mainland Chinese authorities imposed a fast-tracked national-security law on Hong Kong that includes provisions empowering police to order internet companies take down content deemed threatening to national security. TikTok said it will pull its apps from Google and Apple app stores in the city and cease operations...
Maggie86517535 Don’t even know TikTok is here...
Hong Kong is no more a free city! So bad!
bye
Tiktok just do not wanna pass sensitive data to Hong kong govt openly
Stand with HK!
HK ppl are only on apps developed by their American sugar daddies. So no impact.
TikTok just demonstrates to Facebook, WhatsApp, telegram and google - if you don’t obey NationalSecueityLaw , just quit HongKong market
It’s a crap app
No HongKongers welcome you Just stay away from us BoycottChineseProducts
Tiktok ...Tiktok... Be a good dog! BoycottChina
Remove them from the US now !!
TikTok is Chinese spy app
I don't care I want it pulled out from all democratic countries Say NO to CCP spying apps & their companies
Of course, that internet line for TikTok still goes straight thru Beijing.
'Pull Out' ? … probably THROWN OUT !!!
TikTok from China, according to past experience, the country is protected.
That’s strange as their parent company just committed to lease office space in HK
The Chinese company also know the basic law of Hong Kong is not permanent.
No one in Hong Kong using tiktok and it’s a spy app, better get rid it it ASAP
Chinese apps and products are not safe to use, including Tiktok, Zoom, Huawei, WeChat, etc. If you use them, your personal information may be stolen. BoycottChineseProduct BoycottChineseApps
The actual news is they want hk to use Chinese version of tiktok, which is much worse than the “international” tiktok
Who else is using this dumb spying app?
None of my business. I never use any apps related to China.
Basically Hong Kong people do not use TikTok. Fake action. 😪 TikTok should withdraw from the US market! RemoveChinaApps BoycottChineseProduct
DicedMuffin A bit too late to pretend you are not colluding with ccp
Have we ever used TikTok? 😂BoycottChineseApp
killallhkpolice HongKong is an Orwellian state already. No more stuff need spying
No real Hongkongers are using this china app . BTW, good photo choosing.
Bye! We don’t need TikTok👋🏻
Everyone knows the background of the CCP in the TikTok department! Don't pretend to be a foreign company ! CCP_is_terrorist
Better pull out from the U.S.
Tiktok is an international version of 抖音. guess it separates 2 softwares to avoid sanction from international since it has claimed that it will not sent any data to mainland China. That's mean Hongkongers are only allowed to use 抖音 & will be sent all data to HK govt.
Can't have the Chinese people see HK'ers successfully smacking the oppressors around.
Hong Kong young people don’t use Tik Tok and other CCP apps anyway BoycottChineseProducts
Plot twist : Tiktok is from China itself.
'Recent developments' come on tiktok u can do better than that
Whoever is doing business in China recently, has blood of innocent people on his hands and support chinese fascism TheMoreYouKnow
Soon we will hear that 99.9% of Hong Kong people voted for full unification with China. Evil totalitarians. China
Chinese App fears Chinese law? Seriously?
As a Hongkonger, my dream is simple but difficult.. So difficult for HK to have justice, HumanRight, liberty & democracy.. But We’re still fighting! Will world be with us? No more PoliceBrutality, evil CCP Chinazi Totalitarianism! StandWithHK Democracy SOSHK FreeHK
TikTok is CCP. They see more countries banning its data gathering operation. HK is under China's thumb anyway. This is marketing ploy. Dont fall for it world! RT if u agree. Spread the word.
Why did they're allowed to do an IPO
Isn't TikTok owned by Chinese? And pulling out actually censors Hong Kongers who could advocate for their cause via TikTok. What am I missing here?
DeleteTikTok
Cosmetic
Why is the West continuing to do business with China?
Kindly ban tik tok in USA. Zero sympathy for this App.
选择性的问题
the chinese are right , they don't want green terrorist fascist, they want a safe country. It is better than what we see in Europe and America. the looters must be brought to jail and disappear. No mercy for terrorist. They can go to riot in UK.
I also hope this app can pull out of China
Looks like a communist run city
Blessing in disguise?
if only the father of Xi Jinping pulled out........
Is this an act of war?
And it will be pulled from the US soon...
who pulls out in 2020?
How do we make tik tok pull out of America?
TikTok, their time is up.
