TikTok Update

NYC bans TikTok on city-owned devices

New York City is banning TikTok from city-owned devices and requiring agencies to remove the app within the next 30 days.

Some of you have asked, why the coverage on TikTok?

Owned by the Chinese tech giant Bytedance, TikTok has more than a billion users, including an estimated 135 million in the US, and some lawmakers have warned over the past two years that the Chinese government could use the app to collect data on Americans or launch influence operations through the platform. But the exact scope of the problem and goals remain uncertain.

My desire is to provide information on this topic as it becomes available - I am committed to Transparency and Sunshine so you may make an informed decision for yourself.

Northeast Florida Business Alliance - Founder

Small Business is the Heartbeat of America. Independent Business Owners have decided to strike out on their own - to realize their true value, provide a better service, make a better product, and have the flexibility to work around their family's needs.

These business owners do so with the expectation of living productive, fulfilling, and meaningful lives - in pursuit of their own happiness - by owning and operating their own businesses.
