A Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals that 58% of Americans believe that the Chinese government uses TikTok to influence public opinion in the U.S. Republicans are more likely to hold this view compared to Democrats. TikTok has denied sharing user data with the Chinese government and stated that it does not promote or remove content at the request of the Chinese government. The poll also found that 50% of Americans support a ban on TikTok, while 46% agreed with the assertion that China uses the app to spy on American citizens. President Joe Biden signed a legislation giving TikTok's parent company 270 days to divest its U.S. assets or face a ban.
