Canada needs evidence of data misuse before considering TikTok ban: MPs

Tyumen, Russia - January 21, 2020: TikTok and Facebook application on screen Apple iPhone XR
GETTY

The popular video app TikTok has come under scrutiny for national security concerns, and some Members of Parliament say Canada should strengthen its privacy laws before considering an outright ban.

Last week, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that country was considering banning TikTok, an app whose parent company is China-based ByteDance. This came shortly after India banned it, along with 58 other Chinese apps.

The app, which is especially popular with Generation Z, lets users share short videos. On Canada’s Apple App Store it is the number one entertainment app, and according to data from Sensor Tower, it has been downloaded over two billion times globally.

The app has faced criticism from the U.S. and other countries that say its connection to China could compromise user data.

Liberal MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith and New Democrat MP Charlie Angus each said in interviews that in order to ban TikTok, there needs to be evidence of misuse of personal information, which has not happened yet.

“Canada needs to be very wary about jumping on board with the United States, particularly when it comes to issues of credibility of defending privacy and holding digital apps to account,” Angus said.

“The U.S. is the world’s centre for disinformation and surveillance capitalism and they’ve done a very poor job of handling [this].”

Angus, who is a member of Canada’s federal ethics committee, said if enough complaints were raised, the issue should be handled by the Privacy Commissioner, which has been “a very effective tool.”

Erskine-Smith, a member of Canada’s federal industry, science and technology committee, said Canada needs to implement laws that ensure the data of Canadian citizens and residents “isn’t moving overseas to jurisdictions where there aren’t those same controls and protections.”

He added that Canada would only ban an app like TikTok if the ownership of personal data were leaving Canada.

“Then we’d have to work with our allies... if there is a growing movement along the lines of what India has done and what the U.S. is considering, then we ought to consider it as well,” he said. “But I don’t think we’re in that place yet and I think caution is warranted.”

Canada needs to be proactive and look into TikTok: Harder

Shortly after the news from the U.S., Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said that Canada was not going to ban the app.

Conservative MP Rachael Harder, who is also the chair of the ethics committee, said in an interview that Canada needs to be taking a more proactive stance on apps like TikTok.

“I think [what Blair said] is to say that Canada isn’t going to look into this any further, or give consideration to banning TikTok. I think it was putting us on the wrong side of our allies,” she said. “I think we have a responsibility to look at what India is doing, what the U.K. is doing, what the U.S. is doing. These are countries that traditionally we’ve found some solidarity with.”

Harder added that by not looking into the matter it puts Canadians’ privacy at risk, noting that the ethics committee would welcome the proposal to look into TikTok.

TikTok could collect data to tailor ads and services

Sumit Bhatia, director of communications and knowledge mobilization with the Ryerson’s Cybersecure Catalyst, said before Canada thinks about banning the app it needs to understand the real privacy and security concerns that TikTok would pose.

Media reports indicate that TikTok collects data similar to Facebook, Google, and other major tech giants in order to tailor ads and services to its users.

“If you’re collecting that kind of data, and those are the standards you have, then you start building advertising profiles,” Bhatia said. “Then you start pushing out ads to people in the U.S. or Canada and you can favour people who align with your political views in China today.”

Bhatia insisted that if Canada is updating existing privacy laws, it needs to think about what transparency means.

“Transparency means being able to share information in a way that is open but also clear, so that when citizens participate in that process of engaging with a platform that they have complete clarity on how it affects them,” he said.

“Up until now we managed to get away with the fine print model, but I don’t think going forward we can continue to operate like that.”

Government workers should rethink downloading TikTok

Bhatia noted that TikTok could be collecting information from government workers.

A few months ago, the U.S. Senate introduced a bill that would ban TikTok from being downloaded on federal devices.

“Knowing that TikTok is collecting data that could potentially profile sensitive U.S. government employees is concerning,” Bhatia said.

Erskine-Smith added that it might be worth it if a similar directive were placed on Canadian government workers.

“As a public official, I certainly wouldn’t feel comfortable using TikTok on my phone,” he said. “Whether it ought to be a directive from the government, I think it ought to be a recommendation. It’s just not worth the risk.”

  • Robust Demand for EU’s Social Bonds Defies Rout for Global Debt

    (Bloomberg) -- The European Union’s latest offering of social bonds looks set to avoid the collapse of demand seen in recent sovereign debt sales.The bloc pulled in over 61 billion euros ($73 billion) of orders for a 9-billion-euro sale of 15-year debt via banks Tuesday, with the proceeds to be used to help fund a jobs program in the region. Still, it was about half as much as a previous deal for the same maturity in November. Since then global bonds have suffered a sharp selloff.“I take the swiftness of the process as a sign that there is no real challenge for the EU to get demand,” said Antoine Bouvet, senior rates strategist at ING Groep NV. “There might be more reluctance on the part of investors to put bids worth a multiple of the size they’re expecting to get.”The triple-A rated bloc has emerged as one of the most appealing new borrowers, after bidding for its first social bond smashed records last year and a sale in January saw strong demand. That comes as investors are still piling into debt linked to ethical goals, with Italy’s debut last week pulling in the biggest-ever green order book.The broader debt market has seen demand struggle at sovereign auctions, including for U.S. Treasuries and German bonds, sparking the selloff in recent weeks. The EU may have its own appeal, with its debt seen as a potential future rival asset to Treasuries.Treasury Traders Beware Auctions in March as Demand Litmus TestThe sales for its 100 billion-euro SURE social bond program are just a taster ahead of financing for its 800 billion-euro pandemic recovery fund.“There is strong appetite for its name out there,” said Piet Christiansen, chief strategist at Danske Bank A/S, who expects another social bond sale by the end of the month.The bloc cut pricing to 4 basis points below midswaps, from initial guidance of about 2 basis points below. While the order book is “huge,” even the EU is not immune to market repricing and it’s no longer a “one-way street” in terms of ever-tighter deal prices, said Michael Leister, head of rates strategy at Commerzbank AG.DZ Bank AG, HSBC Holdings Plc, NatWest Markets, Toronto-Dominion Bank and UniCredit SpA were appointed as joint lead managers. The EU’s sale of 15-year bonds in November attracted more than 114 billion euros of demand.(Updates with final terms of sale throughout, analyst comments.)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

If anything, the biggest backers of Trump’s false election-fraud narrative - such as Missouri Senator Josh Hawley and Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene - have been rewarded with a flood of grassroots donations, more than offsetting the loss of corporate money.

  • South Africa Iron Ore and Chrome Mining Market Report 2020: Developments in the Sectors, Technology and Innovation

    Dublin, March 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Mining of Iron Ore and Chrome in South Africa 2020" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. This report focuses on the mining of iron ore and chrome in South Africa and includes comprehensive information on the size and state of the sector, production, trade and other statistical information and detailed information on corporate actions and developments and regulation, including the proposed export tax on chrome. Mining of Iron Ore and Chrome in South Africa: South Africa was the world's sixth largest producer of iron ore and largest producer of chrome ore in 2019. In recent months local mines have begun ramping up iron ore and chrome production following the lifting of most coronavirus lockdown measures. While high iron ore prices have lifted export earnings, the local chrome sector is struggling due to global demand challenges and rising electricity costs. The ferrochrome sector is particularly hard hit and five smelters have closed.Developments in the Sectors: Iron ore prices experienced the largest percentage rise among mineral prices in the year to June 2020, as a result of the reduction in supply from Brazil, although iron ore sales volumes and production were down in 2020. The chrome market remains under pressure due to ongoing oversupply and global demand headwinds. Chrome prices experienced the biggest percentage price declines among all mineral prices in the year to June 2020. Some producers are beginning to recover, but ferrochrome producers reported marked production declines and losses in 2020.Technology and Innovation: Mining companies involved in the production of iron ore and chrome ore are automating drills and using drones to survey mining areas and inspect equipment that is not easily accessible, eliminating the need to expose employees to safety risks. Other innovations include trading iron ore on a blockchain-based platform.There are profiles of 21 companies including Anglo American's Kumba Iron Ore, which mines about 70% of all iron ore in the country and other players such as Assmang and Palabora Copper. Chrome producers profiled include Glencore, Samancor Chrome and Afarak, as well as smaller chrome ore producers such as Lanxess and Tharisa.Key Topics Covered: 1. Introduction2.
