bibis (༎ຶ⌑༎ຶ) (@HELLOUNlVERSE) reported@mythopoeiic china is a huge issue and tiktok is china spying tool
-
Web design in Oslo and Around Europe (@mercadder) reported“They failed to see the solutions that are already being implemented or address issues of securing young users, which applies to the entire industry," Tiktok wrote.
-
Sam_sam1 (@Samsam143435923) reported@FrontlineGamer @JezCorden Investigations have shown they already are exploiting domestic US social media for nefarious purposes. Its a problem that has been worked on and needs work still. In fact this is just further reason to ban Tiktok, as well as the spying potential it has.
-
Roy Ong (@royongbg) reportedOne would think you need to have some level of knowledge before you go about questioning others on what you believe to be true. I wonder, do they use social media of any kind? The issues they mentioned are clearly more widespread than just on TikTok.
-
Kelsi Davies (@kelsiidaviess) reported@thanosmiss235 Time to wake up. If the congress cared about protecting its citizens, they’d put this focus on the Fentanyl problem that is killing thousands of americans, the human trafficking that has been going on for decades, etc. Tiktok has been proven to not “send data” to china.

fahtPumPumgyal (@Debbie_ft2) reportedAmerica is a ******* SICK JOKE bro. There’s soooo many pressing life or death issues but they’re spending their time I court to ban tiktok??? An app people got so much opportunities on?? But they’re not worried about gun control laws or women rights huh. Okie
-
Babu Juma (@Babujuma1) reportedI used to think that the idea of leaders who don't have any idea about technology was a third world problem but watching the U.S Congress grilling the TikTok CEO am convinced it's universal. The Congressional leaders have no idea how Tiktok works. So who is financing the ban??
-
HumblePoom.eth (@pdhooms) reportedLet me tell you TikTok isn’t your enemy. But them eating big tech’s lunch money from ad rev is the issue. Their HQ is America and Singapore based not China. Big tech will always censor your *** just remember that. #TikTok
-
哐哐哐 (@kukun088) reported@JC48546570 @Blackkout__ China also has an application software similar to TikTok. In other words, it is only after this application software matures in China that TikTok can expand rapidly in the United States. China also has the problem of short video addiction
-
JanArgy (@JanArgy) reportedThey want to ban TikTok. Problem is the American public loves it.
-
shen (@dropdeadshn) reportedwhy is this congress more concerned about banning tiktok than prioritizing more pressing issues 🤡😒
-
yimu.eth (@chigbuinc) reported@Deedon65 @lme644 @ChuckCallesto From FTX to the current SVB crash. I think y'all have more organized scams to be worries about. Let's not get into the numerous school shootings and every other country trying to boycot the dollar but your zombie government is rather interested in color flags and banning TikTok.
-
matcha (@catboy_club) reportedthere are problems with tiktok and its not about the handling of data. its the **** content moderation and algorithm
-
Zan (@ZanSaysWords) reportedParents blaming tiktok for their kids issues ,instead of actually PARENTING your kids and be a responsibility adult to dictate their screen time is.. i don't actually have the words for it, don't have kids if you can't parent them.
-
ROSÉCHELLA (@roseanneGIE) reported@instagram is so funny, you want to compete with @tiktok but cant even solve simple problem like shadowban. Like why are shadowbanning an artist with a lot of followers in the first place? Your algorithm cannot differentiate between fake acc and real acc? Like what???
-
Dahlia ☯️ (@dctz777) reportedPpl don’t have healthcare and America’s systems are broken but they’re worried about TikTok and women’s vaginas I hate this country
-
De light (@joshuam68498903) reported@jaokoburu thats a small issue ata izo twitter na tiktok atafunga there is no room for impunity that comes after every election
-
Zee (@sweettea19990) reportedOf allll the things America has to fix .. they go after Tiktok????? 🧐
-
FreedomDog (@FDOGofAmerica) reported@realMartinLukas @HawleyMO The problem isn’t TikTok.. it’s peoples inability to think critically
-
S̷̯̏y̸̅͜m̷̧̿p̸͔̀t̶̛̲o̷͗ͅm̴͍͑O̷̎͜Ș̶͑ -Roots Arc ✝️ (@SymptomOfSouls) reported@papiflorida @mtracey I would rather they ban short-form content. And pornography. Banning tiktok doesn't solve the problems. Is it bad that China steals information from users? Absolutely. But I would bet money that china is stealing info from YouTube as well. And Facebook. And every other platform
-
Joseph Thomas (@JoethomasUX) reportedTikTok can track your keystrokes while you use other apps and not just TikTok. That means your bank login, business, government, even text messages, all in the hands of CCP! What they hell is wrong with you arrogant U.S government bribed pricks. @USDefenseVideos @tiktok_us
-
Mike (@mikeeronx) reportedThe fact that they claim Tiktok is a security issue all the while Facebook literally sold user data to Cambridge Analytica is so hypocritical
-
Mind Rambling (@RamblingMyMind) reportedThe irony of Congress working to #BanTikTok, censoring 150 million Americans, damaging or destroying 5 million small to medium businesses & likely putting 7,000 Americans out of work because of China... Where TikTok isn't accessible because they censor the Internet. #KeepTikTok
-
Jaimee Choi (@jaimeechoi) reported@FilmThePoliceLA Absolute waste of time. Could be addressing the root issue of data privacy but instead trying to scapegoat tiktok because China scary
-
Billlardd (@Billlardd1800) reported@ur0tsuk1 facebook n tiktok have the same issues except one is filled with kids and the other is filled wit old people
-
+T+ ... (@voxwilderness) reported@CatholicaPuella TikTok is not a social issue. It's a geopolitik Intel issue. The social issue is how dumbed down and discombobulated we've become as a geographic cluster of people.
-
Nikola (@veselioblacak) reported@scrowder I think we have bigger problems than tiktok
-
MIKE (@WootWootTweety) reported@tenzinttsering Agreed, this is the problem with TikTok and other forms of social media these days. Everything is so taken out of context and misinterpreted by the masses due to one short clip. Great take as usual 👍
-
hnyhxc (@hnybnchsofgoats) reportedleave it to tiktok to teach me that every time i break out in hives after showering, working out, or have any sort of internal temperature increase is not normal like i thought and is probably cholinergic urticaria. the more ya know i guess
-
Rwema (@Rwema47347966) reportedI can’t wait to see TikTok being banned worldwide . Partisans party are working tirelessly on a legislation to protect the privacy of America citizens.There are suspicious activity that Chinese is spying on United States under TikTok umbrella .I do support this legislation .
