Italy fines TikTok ten million euros. The sanction targets three companies of the Chinese giant Bytedance Ltd.
This sanction comes as the US House of Representatives adopted a bill on Wednesday that asks the network to cut all ties with China. TikTok has been in the crosshairs of American authorities for several months, with many officials believing that the application of short and entertaining videos allows Beijing to spy on and manipulate American citizens. The Chinese group denies these allegations, denies having transmitted information to the Chinese authorities and assures that it would refuse any possible request in this direction.
