I feel TikTok CEO very handsome ❤

[@soumikmukherjee8788]

Such a thoughtful and well versed leader. Great talk, good insights on the business. Sad to see not much people listening, talking or clapping around. All people want is find negativity.

[@doords]

There is no arrogance in his speeches unlike some of the other people that come to this show,

[@hedgehog_fox]

Very thoughful response from Chew despit the fact that interviewer was rude and arrogant toward him the whole time.

[@joshau2346]

Because he’s a chinese ethnic

[@doords]

@@joshau2346 Yeah seems like he knows what is good for the company unlike the usual speakers on this show who just wants to act like they are alpha males and think they are above everyone.

I heard this man without racial profiling, and I am astounded by the character and intelligence behind him and Tiktok. No wonder they are a success. Bless them.

[@Hay8137g]

US is racist

[@Stalechip382]

Why would you assume he is dumb justby his race thats bigotry right there

[@Tho-bw4gi]

He learned it from the American way

[@CometdownCat]

I never understood why interviewers from here to everywhere allow people to talk around the question and never begin to answer it and the interviewer just goes ok great thanks and goes to the next “question”…..sadly and amazingly one of the few times I’ve seen it addressed properly and in a way to get a sensible response and not just trying to make their own selves look better, is during the senate judiciary interviews….who would have imagined…..

[@basenvy]

"Family Pairing" is a feature where they can keep tabs on the parents as well. WOW.

[@xaviqq5]

gee! volume please...

[@GonFreaksss]

He has tens of thousands of people doing content moderations, a question that should be asked is: what type of content are you moderating? If people were to speak badly about the Chinese Communist Party, would such content be part of content moderation? The host obviously asked the question about content moderation to throw shade at Elon, but he missed the forest for the trees.

[@Nedwin]

He is Singaporean, eventhough he was in Xiaomi, a chinese company, for a longtime.

I think Tiktok survival depends on the geopolitical issues between US and China, including Russia.

[@edwardhu1209]

How about Meta?

The Algorithm in TikTok is crazy the video recommendations is out of this world.

Amazing public speaker. So prepared, such a diplomat, such vague answers... so rehearsed 😐

I'm so confused by this comment 🤔?

Does TikTok access the home WiFi network ?

Can't hide his Singaporean identity from the way he talks.

בטוויטר יהיו רשימות כמו ביוטוב ואתה יכול לחזור בקלות לFeed בקילר רעיון למשל מוסיקה או סרטים או עיתונאות או בישול. עם אפלקציה גם לארגונים יקרה בהרבה.

Hello

[@jacktran7024]

his answers are too perfect!!!! FAKE

[@Nedwin]

Shou must know that his app has made changes in social ethics that affect teens and adolescents to think differently. Tiktok may not be the only one, but it surely started everything to be in this condition. Filter must be activated to display more secure and ethical presence. I am sorry I need to write this, I think I urge to do it. 🙏

[@kavid8120]

did you know that our version of TikTok isn’t allowed in China ? Their version is mostly for learning stuff nothing else. No dances…montages…challenges etc. That’s suspicious. It’s as if China knows the evil that Tiktok is

[@lydiat5819]

sure, blame it on the tools instead of your parenting skills. Blame it on the baker instead of your children stealing the cookies.

[@lydiat5819]

What are you going to do if my child lies about his age ? What if he steals my mobile and changes the settings ? You are totally responsible for it, right ? Yes or no, answer me !!! Americans : Since he cannot give a simple yes or no, let's just delete Tiktok. It is ok to lose the small and medium businesses, we can afford it.

בטיק טוק אסור יהיה להיות עם שיער צבוע לוורוד או ירוק כמו במשחקי הרעב. למה ככה, זה לא סין. ברעיון חשוב גם לא ביוטוב וטוויץ' ואינסטגרם. טיק טוק צריכה להיות טובה ומוסרית. בהודאה לעיתונות.

“We’re selling your data” is what he said

[@vrts800]

He did not answer the question on Chinese government access. The truth is that if the CCP wants it they will get it.

he is dodging to address this question and the interviewer just let go.

never trust TikTok

[@rosh70]

Irrespective of 'trust' - fact is, TikTok is top 3 social media among Gen Z.

[@MOBMJ]

@@rosh70 just because its top 3 doesn't mean its safe. go read the terms and conditions first then you'll understand

[@rosh70]

@@MOBMJ I never mentioned “safe” in my comment. Just said, it’s top 3. That’s a fact.

[@txr8565]

Ban TikTok

[@basenvy]

He literally said nothing of substance and provided child like answers to semi-challenging questions. They're all scripted and rehearsed answers. We need to delete TikTok from America, look at other countries that have banned it due to security issues.

[@TooAjit2Quit]

@Roger McMillan Since June of 2020, the TikTok app has been banned in India

[@TooAjit2Quit]

@Roger McMillan so you like that China doesn’t allow American companies like FB, IG, and Google to operate in China but you’re OK with Chinese companies operating in the US?

[@TooAjit2Quit]

@Roger McMillan fair point

[@lydiat5819]

Go ahead and delete so that many American small and medium businesses go bust. Go and delete because of the way questions were answered and because you need to copy other countries. Bytedance can still survive well without Tiktok, so go ahead.
