TikTok’s Broad Influence Poses Warning, Says NSA Chief

During his testimony before a Senate panel, General Paul Nakasone, the Director of the NSA, expressed concerns regarding the data and algorithms held by the social media platform TikTok.

General Nakasone expressed his worry to the Senate Armed Services Committee regarding the extensive influence that the Chinese-owned video app TikTok has on its users, and the potential for the platform to manipulate or promote certain content, The Hill reported.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) posed a question to General Nakasone during the hearing, asking for his level of concern regarding the impact of the social media platform on American children. The NSA Director provided a response in kind.

“TikTok concerns me for a number of different reasons. One is the data that they have. Secondly, is the algorithm and who controls the algorithm. Third is the broad platform influence operations, as we talked about previously. It’s not only a fact that you can influence something, but you can also you know, turn off the message as well when you have such a large population of listeners,” Nakasone said.
