TikTok Ban Proposals, CFIUS Treasury Oversight

FCC Commissioner Brandon Carr has called for the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS) to ban TikTok due to national security concerns regarding data management by ByteDance. CFIUS, a division of the Treasury Department, is currently in talks with the company to determine if it should be divested to a U.S.-based firm. The hosts note the irony of similar proposals made during the Trump administration being met with opposition.
