Reply to comment by SparklyRoniPony in TikTok Draws Bipartisan Fire in US on China Surveillance Concern by lAStbaby6534

I can absolutely tell that app is spying on me, as soon as I do anything in real life not associated with anything Ive seen on tiktok, its starts showing me associated videos.

I had zero fire fighter stuff on tt, had a fire training day at work and then it starts showing me those videos…. One of many examples.

The algorithm and spying Im convinced

I hope you all realize your phones, android or iPhone, are actively listening as a feature for marketing services specifically for this function

Supposedly even Google does this. Pixel phones track your every movement by default. If you spend time next to someone who uses Colgate toothpaste, it will start showing you ads for Colgate.
