    🤷‍♂️ I value the service over some theoretical harm. Tiktok has never hurt me.

      Every social media platform with a feed uses some system to rank content for its individual users. This can be abused to subtly influence users.

      You say TikTok has never harmed you but the truth is you probably wouldn’t know. You just changed your mind about certain things over time.

      That problem is certainly not specific to TikTok and I personally avoid also YouTube, Reddit or anything Facebook but it’s not hard to believe that a Chinese or Russian platform is even less hesitant to influence elections, for example.

        I don’t think China designed it nor are they the real threat. The problems with Ticktok are the same with Instagram and YouTube

          I wonder what the expected answer to this question was lol. Did they expect a no, then to swoop in with a “gotcha”?

        I know, anything sometime can be abused it should be eradicated. Let’s just take down the Internet.
