Chew also explained TikTok\u2019s plan to house American user data on Oracle servers, a plan first reported by BuzzFeed News<\/em><\/a> last month.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re proud to be able to serve a global community of more than a billion people who use TikTok to creatively express themselves and be entertained,\u201d Chew wrote in the letter first reported by The New York Times<\/em><\/a>. \u201cWe know we are among the most scrutinized platforms from a security standpoint, and we aim to remove any doubt about the security of U.S. user data.\u201d <\/p>\n The Verge <\/em>independently confirmed the letter\u2019s authenticity on Friday. <\/p>\n Soon after BuzzFeed News <\/em>reported that ByteDance engineers in China had access to US data as late as January 2022, Republican senators questioned Chew<\/a> about the company\u2019s data security practices in a June letter. The letter \u2014 signed by lawmakers like Sens. Roger Wicker (R-MS) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) \u2014 raised concerns that TikTok officials \u201cdid not provide truth or forthright answers\u201d in a recent committee hearing in light of the report. <\/p>\n
