The US House is set to vote on a bill today that would force TikTok’s Chinese parent company to divest from the video-sharing app within 165 days or face a total ban in the country, where TikTok has 170 million users. The bill needs a two-thirds majority to pass. TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew has reportedly been holding urgent meetings with American lawmakers this week as part of the company’s lobbying effort, coupled with the short video app urging users to call their representatives to stop what it has termed a “TikTok shutdown”. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said the US has “never found evidence that TikTok is a national threat to itself” during a press conference on Wednesday, adding that the bill “undermines international investors’ confidence in the investment environment” and will “eventually come back to bite the US itself.”
