I don't really like Tiktok. But, forcing the choice on people probably isn't the best idea either.

It's CCP spyware. It should be banned everywhere.

There's plenty of U.S. equivalents. What's your point?

He's brainwashed into thinking giving Americans his data is better than giving the Chinese.

Must not know about PRISM, lol.

Nepalese residents will be infected with the insidious Chinese Mind Virus if they watch too many Chinese girls putting on make-up or C-Pop Boy Bands do the sissy-hypno dance. Then their society will collapse and China will be free to roll in the tanks. This is just like how China conquered the countries of Hong Kong, Tibet, and Tienanmen Square.

What about American Spy Ware?

What about ism?

What do you mean? If the concern is spyware, then that concern exists whether your using American software or Chinese software.

If you don't think the concern is spyware and it's solely China, then don't mention spyware. Say you don't like it because it's Chinese and leave it at that. You'd come across as more genuine.

The problem is both. I support none of them nor their evil efforts.

The difference is that Tiktok is controlled / influenced by the CCP and the other social media networks are controlled by corporate boards of directors. Tiktok is under the influence of evil communists, literally.

Its about time to ban TikTok. Look what kind of youth have become. Kids doing crazy things for the "fame" of the internet - beating other kids to death, stealing cars, doing drugs, and all minds of illegal stuff just for fun and have lots of "likes". My brother spends hours a day on TikTok he cant keep focused for a long time anymore. I dont trust him anymore because he forgets things all the time now. He is loosing lots of money and now in a huge debts because he was buying things too expensive for him just to upload pics and videos to be "recognised" n stuff... You can say that its my brothers fault, but TikTok and social media is dragging him more than anything. And it happens for a lot of people
