  it is quite literally spyware

  So are Facebook and Instagram, which are apparently not a problem. Remember Cambridge Analytica?

  where they can adjust their own algorithms to show things that can sway the minds of people too young to think critically

  Every social media platform does this for maximum retention

  to the CCP

  What’s the CCP gonna do with it that’s worse than what Western companies do with it?

  the cpc adjusts the American version of an app operated in Singapore to propagandize Zoomers

  This only happens in the minds of the paranoid. China has their own version of TikTok, Douyin, which operates under their media restrictions.

  Ironic. You’re literally commenting on companies adjusting their algorithm to create a narrative and censor something your government doesn’t like.

  Think critically next time. You’re not smart as you think you are.

  The hell do you think the data from American companies goes‽ Snowden literally told us the US govt is doing the same thing…not saying they should, just asking where is the outrage that we’re being spied on by our own government… It’s plenty there when we’re being spied on by China… And quite frankly I feel like China can do a lot less to me than home can.
