For example, I don’t use TikTok. I never have, and I never will, and I’d advise everyone else to get off the platform too. I genuinely believe it’s objectively harmful to people’s mental health and possibly even a threat to democracy. That said, I also believe people should be free to decide for themselves whether they want to use it or not, which is why I’m against the U.S. government banning it.

    I’ll find the tech that broke it down. He monitored the android system and say it hooks into a lot more than any other social media app. If that’s not enough, the owner and creator of tiktok has already been involved in some snooping and questionable data handling. Anyone telling you otherwise just isn’t educated enough. It needs to go 100%.
