TikTok has faced allegations that it harvests users' data and hands it to the Chinese government.
A spokesperson for China's foreign ministry accused the US of abusing state power to suppress foreign firms.
TikTok says it would never comply with an order to share user data and insists it operates no differently from other social media companies.
