TikTok is being shut off in the U.S. soon

And nothing of Value will be Lost

TikTok has been a known privacy and security risk for years now. I'm not upset that the US government is taking action against it, but they shouldn't target only one company. IMO, it would be better if they instituted wider data and privacy protections like the EU's GDPR.
That would require US based companies to comply with it, which is exactly why they don't. It's actually my biggest issue on this whole thing. We need actual protections against our data constantly be stolen.

TikTok is a highly valuable resource. Lots of people rely on it daily. Don't just listen to the propaganda and negativity. There's more positivity on the app than not. Don't bash something you don't have any knowledge of.
 
These comments aren't it. TikTok is a valuable resource for many people. I've used it since 2017 and loved it. My whole family did, and so did 170 million other people. The fact that everyone here is saying, "it's just brain rot" are just listening to the propaganda and negativity. There's a lot of positivity on TikTok. Educational resources too. I also can't believe people here are falling for the "US security risk" nonsense. I don't want the government telling me what I can and cannot access. Many jobs are lost. Just because you don't like it or agree with it doesn't mean it's bad. You don't have to use it. I deleted my Facebook and X accounts today and joined Bluesky.

US companies are selling our data left and right, but that's okay? This is about controlling the narrative and silencing the masses. This is bad for ANY platform to be silenced. Not just TikTok. IT needs to be up to the people to decide what to do.

Like I said multiple times here, I trust Zuckerberg and Elon Musk as much as I trust the Chinese Government. Which is zero percent. Anyone who thinks they are trustworthy are fooling themselves.
 
I barely use social media, never checked TikTok even once in my entire life so.... Not sure this is gonna affect me at all.
