US Army cadets told not to use TikTok in uniform
The directive comes after Chuck Schumer, the top Democrat in the US Senate, urged the Army to review potential risks in its use of the popular video app for recruiting American teenagers.
The US Army Cadet Command, which issued the order, oversees the Reserve Officers Training Corp, ROTC, and Junior ROTC, to train university and high school students for the military. The guidance from cadet command was issued in order to “err on the side of caution”, an Army spokeswoman said. A Reuters search of the hashtags “#rotc” and “#jrotc” found multiple TikToks of young men and women in US military uniforms lip-syncing, dancing and performing training exercises.The company has previously stressed its independence from Beijing and said no US user data is stored in China, but it has failed to assuage congressional concerns about the security of the personal data of US citizens using the app and whether content on the platform is subject to censorship from Beijing.
