"TikTok is stealing your data."
They don't want to protect, they want exclusivity.
Err... Not to throw a wrench into things but, yeah. They kinda sorta did.
"Kinda sorta" is definitely the best way to put it.
security is totally different from privacy
I think the issue is that TiKtok is just as bad as all the other social media and they are owned by a foreign adversary.
Foreign adversaries (ie China, Russia and America) use social media for influence campaigns on each other and therefore their social media platforms can't be trusted. This is why Chinese people similarly can't use Google or Facebook
Good job, this is exactly the understanding and framing that the Council on Foreign Relations wants you to have 💯
But China is not part of 14 eyes. So for citizens it is better that China has it than their own government.
Russia does that without (US-)foreign social media. Same difference.
