Oracle Is Now Vetting TikTok’s Algorithms

Oracle vetting and auditing TikTok’s algorithms.

On Tuesday, Axios reported that Oracle will be responsible for reviewing the platform’s content moderation methods and will soon have all U.S. user data on its cloud. A spokesperson told Axios that this traffic is now being routed to Oracle’s cloud infrastructure. 

The technology corporation’s reviews are part of “Project Texas,” the platform’s efforts to convince U.S. lawmakers that its algorithms do not threaten national security. 

This review of the algorithms will “ensure that outcomes are in line with expectations and that the models have not been manipulated in any way,” the spokesperson told Axios.

The No TikTok on Government Devices Act was reintroduced by Sen. Josh Hawley (R.MO), last year to prohibit TikTok in devices that federal employees use.

Hawley claimed that TikTok is “a Trojan horse for the Chinese Communist Party that has no place on government devices—or any American devices, for that matter,” in a statement. 

“TikTok has repeatedly proven itself to be a malicious actor[,]But Joe Biden, Big Tech and Big Tech are refusing to seriously consider the Chinese spying threat. It’s time for Congress to act,” he added.
