  When contacted about those allegations by the BBC, TikTok provided the statement: “With regards to users being locked out of the app until they called, that is false. All users had two methods for dismissing the notifications.”

  Probably the usual hidden grey button “dismiss” over greyish background, just as Google, Microsoft and some other do.

  If it were true yeah. In reality they are just shitting themselves because people on TikTok are broadcasting the genocide funded by US tax dollars and literally using American made bombs

      Common fucking sense. There’s no technical mechanism they could use to lock you out of the app until they confirmed you made a phone call. How did all these grandpa’s get here?
