With the change in TikTok ownership, TikTok users in the U.S. are collectively freaking out over the company’s updated privacy policy after being alerted to the changes through an in-app message.
The revised document details the U.S. joint venture’s conditions for using its service, including the specific location information it may collect.
Many users are also posting to social media about language found in the policy, which says that TikTok could collect sensitive information about its users, including their “sexual life or sexual orientation, status as transgender or nonbinary, citizenship or immigration status.”
Yeah, remember when Trump “saved” Tiktok? This is what he was doing. You fucking idiots celebrated when you should have been taking it as a sign to leave that app and never return.
Honestly, TikTok was corrupt and malicious from the moment its servers in beijing went online.
We did that is why we are here. You need to be saying this on tik tok
No one should be going anywhere near tik tok after reading this. They shouldn’t have before, but especially not now.
There were people here celebrating Donvict doing that?
I’ll never understand why Americans would prefer TikTok be US owned than China owned. What is China going to do? Propaganda is the worst they can realistically do. The US government can send ICE agents to arrest, beat, and torture you, in your home, without a warrant
I just expect China to share that shit regardless tbh. Maximum chaos on the American empire.
Something tells me the royal “you” you’re mad at isn’t on the fediverse
All the corporate controlled social media is complicit, including Meta and obviously X. They make it so easy and entertaining, just like Fux News. There are much less invasive alternatives like Mastodon but people are lazy/stupid.
