TikTok, the Chinese-owned video-sharing platform, is fighting back in the courts after regulators in Europe slapped it with a €345mil (US$363mil/RM1.7bil) data privacy fine and a compliance order for failing to take care of the private data of its teenage users.
The ByteDance Ltd unit said it’s filed an appeal in the European Union’s General Court against the penalty and is also challenging locally an order by its lead data regulator in Ireland to eliminate "deceptive or manipulative” practices that could undermine privacy.
