I would love to see TikTok die because I hate it. My students are constantly using it and are so influenced by it in a way that's really terrible. The body image impact particularly is really disastrous.

 

But realistically I can't support congress doing this when their motivations are obviously impure and borderline racist :skull: 

It is insanely depressing.  I uninstalled it. Let celebrities be celebrities.  

 

Also homophobic and racist troll comments do not help.

I remember they already stored the oversea data in Singapore right.

TikTok definitely needs to be sold to a US company soon, I love it but FB/Twitter and others are banned in China. They should not have access to our info.

China has been blocking Google, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Wikipedia, Instagram, Reddit, Whatsapp, Pinterest, Telegram, Pixiv, DuckDuckGo, Etsy, Dropbox, Discord, WordPress, Tumblr, Odnoklassniki, The New York Times, BBC, Medium, FC2, Patreon, Behance, DeviantArt, Shutterstock, Vimeo, The Guardian, Dailymotion, Blogger, Soundcloud, Goodreads, Kakao, Forbes, and tens of thousands of other popular websites for many years.

 

If China wants more countries to accept TikTok, China should strike a deal by unblocking these other unjustly blocked websites. Consider it a cultural exchange.

Americans dying from being poisoned by their own government yet even Democrats are more concerned that some Level III developer named Haoyu living in Shanghai can access user's birth dates by virtue of having access to the database they're stored via the security protocols in the system he literally helped build when asked to block access to low-level employees in China. :deadbanana4:

 

That is why the original Buzzfeed article from like 2 years ago remains obscene. The goal post remains that no employees in China should have access in anyway to any American user data - even in the capacity of the Chinese employees tasked with building and showing American employees how to maintain the protocols built to make said data inaccessible to 99% of Chinese employees. It's basically a demand to shift all labor to America. 

This is the dumbest **** I’ve ever seen on this website

Facebook and Twitter are full of anti-vaxxers, Neo-Nazis and Q-anon weirdos, but it's that bad Chinese app that Americans want to get rid of.

"promoting incel content to 13 year olds" as though Facebook, Twitter and YouTube don't already do that and aren't facing nearly as much scrutiny. This country is a joke.

Glenn Greenwald's a POS for several reasons so this is my equivalent of retweets don't equal endorsement of said poster.

 

Or necessarily argument being made by person he's quoting in full, but a lot of interesting points I agree with.

They're tearing the Tiktok CEO apart today during the congressional hearing. I truly see a ban coming after all this.

I’m going to miss tik tok, the best app to ever exist as user experience

 

Good thing is I travel a lot, so I will have access when I go to Canada, Mexico or Europe

The way they won’t even let the CEO speak.

The way they will ban TikTok Before they ban guns that killed 746383 US children.:rip:

It's got nothing to do with security. It's simply a war about big tech and user data, that's all.

The CEO being asked "if TikTok can access wifi?". :deadbanana4:
