Reply to comment by DietZer0 in Why TikTok’s future has never been so cloudy by prehistoric_knight

Another Trojan horse. Why do people not realize it’s entire purpose is to catalog people and use biometrics, not to mention all the spying they do. People are ridiculous. Whether it’s Facebook or Tik Tok, these are dangerous apps.

Everyone realizes it.

I think a considerable portion of the population has been hearing "they are spying on you/selling your information" for so long they just don't care. Or don't think there's anything they can do about so there's no point in fighting it. Either way.

Some of the smartest technologists I know have this attitude. It’s just hopeless.

Tiktok goes way beyond spying. They are steering culture, generating political and familial divide and confusing the vary fabric of truth and science. All while using the same tool to push science and educational videos to their youngest members. Spying is the very least of the issue IMHO.
