The European Union's executive branch said Thursday that it has temporarily banned TikTok from phones used by employees as a cybersecurity measure, reflecting widening worries from Western officials over the Chinese-owned video sharing app.
In a first for the European Commission, its Corporate Management Board suspended the use of TikTok on devices issued to staff or personal devices that staff use for work.
The EU's action follows similar moves in the U.S., where more than half of the states and Congress have banned TikTok from official government devices. Caroline Greer, TikTok's Brussels-based public policy official, tweeted that the suspension "is misguided and based on fundamental misconceptions." Commission spokespeople declined to say whether a specific incident triggered the suspension or what's needed to get it lifted.
