Fox News
Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown launched a TikTok account Saturday despite expressing "serious concerns" over the company's CCP ties and potential threats to privacy in March.
Aubrie Spady is a Freelance Production Assistant for Fox News Digital.
"We must protect Ohioans' personal information from the Chinese Communist Party," Brown told WTOL 11 when asked about his stance on the platform. "I have serious concerns with this company's ties to the Chinese government and will continue to work with members of both parties to look at how we can best protect Ohioans' privacy and our national security."
Despite acknowledging the company's ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and a potential privacy threat to its users, the senator encouraged Twitter (the platform now named X) users to "follow along with me" on his new social media page.
