    Hysteria?? There’s undeniable proof that TikTok does a shit ton of data gathering. You fucking tankies always act like China is some ray of utopia and hail Mao and Xi like they’re some kind of deities.

    Never said the US Government wasn’t a problem, but why do you act like China doesn’t do shit either?

      You seem to have missed the part of the comment you’re responding to where they said:

      …no one cares about all the other apps that we know for sure spy on you and give info to US government (and others).

      No one is saying that TikTok isn’t collecting a shit ton of data on its users. They’re pointing out that this has been an ongoing problem with tech that burgers have been using for a long time, but that the burger regime didn’t so much as make a peep until it was a Chinese tech company doing the same thing. You don’t need to be a communist to see the double standards at play here.
