TikTok's new CEO is top Disney exec who launched Disney Plus - CNET
TikTok's next CEO will be Kevin Mayer, a top Disney executive who spearheaded the launch of Disney Plus. TikTok, a social app for sharing short videos, has exploded in popularity in recent years, but the China-based service has bumped up against questions in the US and elsewhere for its privacy, child-safety, user data and content moderations practices.
Monday, TikTok-owner ByteDance said it named Mayer the CEO of TikTok and the chief operating officer of ByteDance as a whole, reporting to ByteDance's founder and CEO Yiming Zhang.
