TikTok sues Ireland’s data protection watchdog over €530m penalty from regulator

The DPC said TikTok failed to show that EU users' personal data, some of which is remotely accessed by staff in China, was afforded the high level of protection provided for under EU law.

Tech giant TikTok has sued the Data Protection Commission in objection to a massive €530m penalty it received from the regulator earlier this month.

The social media company lodged papers in the High Court on Tuesday for a judicial review against the DPC.
