Katie Puris, the former head of global marketing at TikTok, has filed a gender discrimination lawsuit against the social media company. Puris alleges she was unlawfully terminated for not exhibiting the 'docility and meekness' that ByteDance Chairman Lidong Zhang and other executives believed was required of female employees. The lawsuit addresses issues of sex and age bias, claiming that Puris's firing was unlawful. Concurrently, a bipartisan group of 15 U.S. lawmakers has urged the Commerce Department to place ByteDance on a government export control list to restrict its access to U.S. technology.
