TikTok as a Security Threat? A Challenge for Political Actors in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The phenomenon of digitalization naturally also affects the functioning and decision-making of political actors. In recent years, even the Chinese social network TikTok has experienced an unprecedented rise among all social networks. Although there are opinions that TikTok de facto devalues politics, political actors have a completely different attitude towards it. This chapter focuses on TikTok from a security perspective. It follows from the reactions of several state authorities that this application poses a particular risk that must be dealt with. Despite many debates and warnings about the specific security shortcomings of this application, there are a number of political parties and politicians themselves who use this application as an effective means of communicating with young voters or first-time voters. Therefore, the question arises whether it is appropriate to choose the path of partial bans and restrictions of this application or whether the choice should be left to the user himself.
