TikTok says it didn't take part in Australia security probes
CANBERRA – TikTok executives told a Senate committee on Friday that they lobbied Australian lawmakers but did not engage with investigators before the government concluded that the video-sharing app did not pose a security threat.The executives were questioned by a committee that is examining foreign interference in Australia through social media.The Chinese-owned app has come under intense scrutiny in Australia after President Donald Trump threatened to ban it from the United States on national security grounds.TikTok general manager for Australia and New Zealand, Lee Hunter, said the Australian government “recently concluded that there was no reason to restrict us.”Australia’s Home Affairs Department and security agencies examined whether.
