This is dumb. Their whole argument is that “anyone can buy information”. That’s not the point. The point is they own the information. And the ownership matters A LOT.
Who owns your information is the biggest scam on the people of our generation. Who owns the information for where you go and what you do can lead to so many problems. See Facebook and Google.
They completely glaze over this and ignore it completely. That also doesn’t account for what they could here if the microphone has access that isn’t common knowledge.
Ban all social media if you think ownership is the point. Or is it only a problem now because you’re not the top dog in internet surveillance? You schum come over like the ownership matters “now” when the pole position is from a different country is hilarious and very telling.
They (Tiktok) has owned the information for about 10th of the time social media companies became a thing. Everyone in the US was fine then while social media companies were sowing discord/violence/hate and genocide abroad, now everyone else is fine most US social media data is owned by someone else. Deal with it.
It’s not the author who’s out of touch. The same recipe US used to create mega corp monopolies is coming to bite you, it’s just controlled by the CCP, LMAO.
Keep telling yourself whatever makes you seem you’re on the righteous side. You’re fooling no one. you do you tho.
You don’t know anything about me. You created this whole facade in your life. Not mine. You have zero clue of what social media I use, if any. And if I do, why.
Can’t even find the argument between your insults, this comment is hilarious, but not in the good way.
And if you wanna have an answer that’s actually informative: it doesn’t matter which company, which country or where, but having content based information as well as metadata can lead to so much power, and there’s a good argument to be made that no one deserves blackmail levels of power over your life, especially a random cooperation that’s beholden to no one except it’s own rules.
And before you go on a tirade again: no, this has absolutely nothing to do with country or anything, this is an ethical dilemma which can be extended to any country.
The country does matter. China operates social scoring limiting people based on non-criminal behaviour. People also often disappear, with no recourse. They use this information to manipulate public opinions. They also use this information to support their genocide of minorites in China. They also manipulate Chinese people outside of China to support their espionage and propaganda. They also use this to limit and regulate information access.
Tiktok is a tool owned and operated by a totalitarian government, that has recently become less accountable and more totalitarian. Other social medias aren’t comparable.

It’s a problem now because China is a hostile state.
Yes, that obviously matters.
