Is tiktok saying that all Chinese apps that steal our data are also stealing our data because they were designed to steal our data?!
I am SHOCKED.
You don't even need the word Chinese
Lol, what domestic social media apps are the US government trying to ban?
What's that? None of them? Ah okay.
The concern is international espionage, there are really only 2 big players in that space. One of them is the US, can you guess the other?
I think you replied to the wrong person. I was writing about stealing data.
Simply reading the article would reveal how ludicrously incorrect your argument is.
I don't recall making any arguments, can you elaborate?
You're clearly arguing that tiktok is arguing in court that all Chinese apps steal your data.
This is patently false to anyone who has read the article. But, of course, it's much easier to find something to be outraged over when you don't really know what's going on.
