For example, I don’t use TikTok. I never have, and I never will, and I’d advise everyone else to get off the platform too. I genuinely believe it’s objectively harmful to people’s mental health and possibly even a threat to democracy. That said, I also believe people should be free to decide for themselves whether they want to use it or not, which is why I’m against the U.S. government banning it.
Be advised TikTok is literally Chinese spyware on your phone. It’s collecting all sorts of data on all it’s users all the time. This is a known thing, and the initial impetus of many organizations to ban it internally
And Facebook, X, Google apps, etc are what exactly?
They’re just as bad or worse on privacy. People throw around that “Chinese” label like it’s supposed to make it worse, somehow. Seems a bit racist to me. At least “the Chinese” aren’t feeding that data to government entities that have actual power over me.
I’ll find the tech that broke it down. He monitored the android system and say it hooks into a lot more than any other social media app. If that’s not enough, the owner and creator of tiktok has already been involved in some snooping and questionable data handling. Anyone telling you otherwise just isn’t educated enough. It needs to go 100%.
The problem with Facebook etc is that they monitor you even outside the app. TikTok is a little kid surrounded by hungry sharks of social media.
Stop this other nonsense. You look like a moron to anybody remotely educated.
I’m tired of this made up spyware propaganda. Absolute luddites shit.

👌👍 I’ll just take his word on that. And yet the hundreds of thousands apparently worthless OCIO from every government on the planet seems to lack the ability to provide a single shed of evidence. 👍
Please post that white paper I await it eagerly.
No thanks educate yourself.
Bullshit
Okay keep using the app and prove me wrong lol
Did you reply to the wrong person? I’m saying TikTok is spyware
👌👍 Alexa it’s secretly listening to you and TikTok has someone bypassed the myriad of Android and iOS permissions.
EVERYONE IS HACKING ME!
-internet morons
Achually jackass I’m looking for an in depth technical review. Do you have one? Have you somehow stumbled on some secret zero day in android being used for the post 5 years of dribble?
Twat.
Oh give me a break. You’re looking to troll. Pretty fuckin obvious.
How about you give me one single fact to back up your comments instead of being a twat and screaming troll. Please please educate me how the Chinese are hacking me.
The tech illiterate bullshit is strong in you.
You can’t, because it’s a made up fantasy. No more real than critical race theory. You’ve made this shit up because you lack the ability to actually explain meaning behind your made up bullshit.
No one likes explaining something basic that’s been discussed a million times to a jerk who is pretending not to get it and erecting strawmen
