And people still use tiktok like its the fucking greatest shit in the universe.

Ofcourse you find a lot of content that uou like becouse tiktok has one of the if not the best system that makes you stay on the platform as long as possible by recognizing what kind of content you would like to see and at what time. It is just so crazy to think that what kind of algorythm makea that possible. Tik tok literally stores a lot of data on your phone foe example "TikTok knows the device you are using, your location, IP address, search history, the content of your messages, what you're viewing and for how long. It also collects device identifiers to track your interactions with advertisers."(https://www.wired.co.uk/article/tiktok-data-privacy). I would not be suprised that the chinese goverment would use all of that data for getting as much data as possible on other countries, becouse of all the data attacts china has done on us and other foreign coutries in the past 10years. And also it bugs me a lot that chinese current goverment leader xi jinping has stated that one of chinas goals are that china would control the whole world. I think that tik tok could benefit that goal for china a lot.
