People in America love to complain about TikTok is harvesting all sorts of data. My response is yeah that’s awful, let’s stop all the data harvesting, and they’re like no just TikTok, the CCP is the ultimate evil
Because that's what they are told to think. The notion that they are thinking on their own is laughable.
Oh yeah definitely. The media loves to paint China as some massive villain and the American tech companies as our saviours, while they’re both doing similar evil shit
All govs want to protect or further their personal interests: Monopolies of violence, power, and intelligence. The citizens be damned.
