This is the best summary I could come up with:

Canada’s security agency is trying to dissuade Canadians from using TikTok, telling users that their data is “available to the government of China.”

In an interview with CBC News set to air on Saturday, David Vigneault, the director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, said that “there is a very clear strategy on the part of the government of China … to be able to acquire … personal information from around the world,” the CBC reports.

The Chinese government’s ability to access user data is at the forefront of US efforts to regulate — and potentially even ban — the app.

Congress passed a bill that would ban TikTok unless it divests from its Beijing-based parent company, ByteDance, in April.

TikTok sued the US government over the law in May, arguing that the looming ban is unconstitutional.

TikTok has previously claimed that staffers in China are unable to access US and European users’ data.
