You cannot tell me that
A) one service needs you to use the app and keylogs you, and you cannot easily avoid it even on other websites
B) one service that does not need you to use the app, only keylogs on the app, and does not employ this crap via other websites
in the above cases, A and B scenarios are same. No, they are not. Yes, keylogging is bad. But, one of them allows you to avoid it. And you are fucked with the service in scenario A if you must need it.
You’re still not understanding what is being talked about.
Here is the situation being talked about:
At no point is anyone claiming it’s unavoidable, or spread on countless websites. It’s the app that’s the issue, it’s the app that doing the keylogging.
Someone shared they are pushing malware JS via https://netseer-ipaddr-assoc.xy.fbcdn.net, so one of them is incomparably horrific.
If I am opening TikTok in a browser, I do not have much to worry about. It can keylog what I search for or comment in TikTok, nothing else. And this is in-app, NOT if Tiktok is used in-browser. On the other hand, I have to block off Facebook domains on system HOSTS level to keep myself safe from malware.
You are wanting to put TikTok in an isolated perspective, while I am pitting it against Facebook, since it is about JS/in-app keylogging tactics, and I am discussing the scope of both services.
