Meanwhile this is a very interesting read on their corporate structure: https://committees.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/13247/default/ https://committees.parliament.uk/writtenevidence/13247/defau...
"On corporate structure specifically, there is a misconception that TikTok UK is a subsidiary of ByteDance's operations in China. This is not the case. TikTok UK is owned by global parent company ByteDance Ltd, incorporated in the Cayman Islands"
.. now, everyone talks about China as a global enemy of freedom and accountability, but I think Grand Cayman is underestimated as a bad actor or protector thereof.
