TikTok美国分拆公司将授权中国算法以应对安全担忧

摘要

TikTok美国版将从字节跳动授权其推荐算法,引发关于数据安全和内容控制的质疑。

据中国网络安全监管部门副负责人王京涛透露,TikTok美国版将从其中国母公司字节跳动授权推荐算法。王京涛表示,美中官员已就包括“算法及其他知识产权授权”在内的框架达成一致。

此举正值美国官员持续担忧该算法可能被操控,以向美国用户推送宣传或极化内容。推荐算法是TikTok提供个性化内容的核心,但其中国背景引发了国家安全方面的质疑。

一位亚洲的字节跳动投资者表示,新的美国TikTok实体将至少使用部分中国算法,但会在美国利用美国用户数据进行训练。该投资者指出,北京方面的底线是达成授权协议,旨在被视为向美国及全球出口中国技术。

这一协议是在美中官员于马德里进行了为期两天的谈判后达成的,旨在确保这款中国拥有的应用程序在美国继续运营。尽管美国法律要求字节跳动剥离其美国业务,否则将面临全国禁令,特朗普政府此前已介入确保TikTok的可用性。

中国最高贸易谈判代表表示,北京将批准TikTok算法的出口。美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特提到,分拆后的应用将由美国投资者控制,但仍保留一些“中国产特征”。

目前尚不清楚字节跳动在授权协议中将保留多少对美国算法的控制权。分析人士认为,为符合去年由时任总统乔·拜登签署的剥离或禁令法律,算法必须完全由美国实体运营。然而,该法律允许美国总统决定字节跳动是否已完全剥离TikTok,这赋予了特朗普总统批准该协议的权力。
