'We have built...'Project Texas', which ensures that American data is stored on American soil by an American company and overseen by American personnel,' CEO Shou Zi Chew said. TikTok CEO calls Montana's ban on app 'unconstitutional':
DOHA -TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew said on Tuesday the U.S. state of Montana's ban of the app was unconstitutional and that he was confident his company will prevail in a lawsuit challenging the decision.
"We believe that the Montana bill that was recently passed is simply unconstitutional," Chew told the Qatar Economic Forum organised by Bloomberg. "The Chinese government never asked us for U.S. users' data and we will not provide even if asked," Chew said."Today by default, all U.S. data is stored in the Oracle cloud service already," he said.
In March, a congressional committee grilled Chew about whether the Chinese government could access user data or influence what Americans see on the app.
