A security researcher wrote an article while back and it was shocking to see how much data TikTok was collecting:

- biometrics

- what words are mentioned in the video, popularity

- surrounding wifi, location data

- your contacts (presumably to cross link to social media platforms)

I just can't believe that a powerful country like America is letting a not-so-friendly military/civilian complex infiltrate it for somewhat unknown purpose.
