I agree! Both are issues, but I was giving a different context where a TikTok user may not care about it being under the thumb of the CCP.
Why would I care? Is it somehow better for google or facebook to profit off of my data? China doesn't even solely own the app. They don't even own enough of the app to censor it and so it's banned in China lmao
Why do you keep repeating that all over this post? It's not even true (unproven):
