US-China Tech war: TikToK, WeChat remain in Washington’s crosshairs after Biden revokes Trump’s orders

The US operations of TikTok and WeChat remain at risk, according to analysts, as President Joe Biden directed a review of security concerns posed by these popular Chinese apps soon after revoking his predecessor Donald Trump’s executive orders, which sought to ban them.

“TikTok and WeChat are still in the crosshairs of the US government,” said Abishur Prakash, from Toronto-based consulting firm the Centre for Innovating the Future. “Depending on what the US finds, new action could be taken.”
