What is Project Texas?

Project Texas is an unprecedented initiative dedicated to making every U.S. user on TikTok feel safe, providing them with confidence that their data is secure and the operation of the platform is free from outside influence. This initiative addresses key issues of corporate governance, content recommendation and moderation, data security, and system access. It is a comprehensive package of measures with layers of government and independent oversight to safeguard against backdoors into TikTok that could be used to manipulate the platform. We are committed to the framework we’ve developed through discussions with CFIUS, as demonstrated by our initial $1.5 billion investment in implementing technology and operational changes. Project Texas puts the concepts of transparency and accountability into action by addressing national security concerns head-on with concrete, measurable solutions.
