\tTikTok announced it would remove the short form video service from Hong Kong app stores within days after China imposed a wide-ranging national security law on the territory, Reuters reported.<\/p>\n

A company representative told the news agency the decision was taken \u201cin light of recent events\u201d. Reuters stated TikTok had 150,000 users in the territory at end-August 2019, with the operation not profitable.<\/p>\n

It reported Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Google and Telegram are also reconsidering cooperating with requests for user data from the Hong Kong government, as they review the controversial new law.<\/p>\n

Globally TikTok had been downloaded more than 2 billion times from the Apple App Store and Google Play by end-March, data from Sensor Tower showed.<\/p>\n

The short form video app, owned by China\u2019s most valuable start-up ByteDance, recently faced close inspection in the US over national security concerns, and an outright ban in India [1] as part of a broader clampdown on Chinese apps.<\/p>\n
