(Washington Comprehensive News) A survey of American public opinion shows that nearly 60 % of Americans believe that China is influenced American public opinion through short video applications TIKTOK.
According to Reuters, a survey conducted by the Reuters and international market research institutions of Yippso (IPSOS) showed that about 58 % of the Americans interviewed agreed that the Chinese government would use Chinese technology companies to beat by bytes.Tiktok affects the public opinion in the United States.
The proportion of people who disagree with the above statement is 13 %, and other respondents have no clear view of this question or did not answer.
This two -day survey ended on Tuesday (April 30).The survey shows that Republicans are more inclined to think that China is using Tiktok to influence American public opinion.
U.S. President Bayeng signed a bill last week requested that byte beating to sell Tiktok's business in the United States within 270 days. If the byte beating cannot be done within the prescribed time, Tiktok will be banned in the United States.
Tiktok believes that this approach in Washington violates the clauses on the freedom of protection in the first amendment of the US Constitution, and said that it will launch legal challenges.
Reuters and Iposo's surveys showed that 50 % of Americans participated in the survey support for banning Tiktok, 32 % of them opposed this, and the rest were not sure.
It is reported that the survey target is an adult in the United States, which does not reflect the views of groups under the age of 18, and this group accounts for a high rate among Tiktok users.
The survey shows that six people participating in the investigators at the age of 40 and above support Tiktok for each 10 people; but only four of each of the 10 surveys among groups aged 18 to 39 supporting Tiktok.
A reason for the interviewees to claim to ban TIKTOK is that China uses this application to "monitor the daily life of Americans", and 46 % of the respondents agreed to this statement.
