That’s gotta be fucking illegal when you look at the GDPR. No other company that uses data could get away with this.

It’s weird to think about but my wife has accidentally put in at least two or three because she thought they had fallen out at night. Now that she’s near blind, she can tell the difference before feeling it.

It’s not just about having data but the ability to prorrogarte the data being shown by their apps. Between Facebook and Twitter, TikTok can be manipulated into echo chambers to divide our country even more than the Russians have in the past.

GDPR is taught in every American country doing overseas business as part of their data protection knowledge even though the US doesn’t have the same standard. If someone could differentiate the difference in TikTok feed algorithm between every country beside China you would see a difference on what gets shown. It’s weird we even have TikTok in the US.
