The dispute between the US and China continues to gain momentum. US Secretary of State Pompeo calls for some apps from Chinese providers to be banned from his compatriots' smartphones. The Americans are also targeting a popular messenger service.
The US government wants to keep "untrustworthy" apps from China away from American smartphones on a broad front. "Apps from the People's Republic of China threaten our privacy, spread computer viruses and spread propaganda and false information," said US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. They should be removed from app stores in the United States.
In addition to the video app Tiktok, which recently hit the headlines, Pompeo also mentioned the messenger service Wechat; which is extremely popular in China. Initially, there was no information on who and according to which criteria should determine the trustworthiness of the apps.
Pompeo also wants to ensure that personal information of American citizens and data from US companies does not end up in cloud services from Chinese providers such as Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent. The US government also wants to prevent Chinese network operators such as China Mobile from accessing American telecom networks.
The US Secretary of State also called on companies from other countries not to bring their applications to the in-house app store of the Chinese smartphone provider Huawei. Huawei is building its own app platform because the company can no longer use Google's Play Store download for Android smartphones due to US sanctions for new models. The American government accuses Huawei; among other things; of espionage. The company rejects this.
In the case of Tiktok; US President Donald Trump recently brought up a ban in the US; with reference to a risk to user data. Microsoft is currently negotiating with the Chinese parent company Bytedance to purchase the US business of the video app; which is also popular in Germany. Tiktok says it has never shared data with Chinese authorities.
