      I think it’s a valid point that the concern being raised about tik tok is just as valid with other apps, both from Facebook or Twitter etc and from overseas apps. People are happily giving up their data and don’t see a distinction in how it is being used for disinformation by different state actors. It’s all misinformation.

      People are apathetic to the risk, but also don’t see the risk for foreign government snooping as significantly higher than internal snooping.

        You’re not making a lot of sense… It also seems that you’re under the impression that tiktok doesn’t sell data and ad profiles like all other social media networks?

            Through your odd syntax at times and non-US spellings of common words, seems likely that you aren’t actually from the United States - the US being the place where this farce was perpetrated - yet you speak with an “us” and a “we”… It’s strange.

            Anyway, these are a few odd bits of info that seem to inform you as an unreliable source in this discussion. Are you trying to sow discord from afar, you silly little scamp?

                    Yes, in America, where the “we” that you include yourself in, resides.

                    Honestly, was a bit hesitant to help you realize the holes in your grift by highlighting them, but I do appreciate that you are at least willing to learn, you absolute scoundrel you.

                    Don’t worry though, plenty of other obvious, repeated mistakes in your regular prose, that I haven’t pointed out here, that also 100% give you away as you attempt to deceive folks.

                    Oh well! Further Innovative!

                “I am the pupil of Meng Tian’s History. Further innovate and meaningful change.”

                Yes. Very “we” and very “us”, exact sentiment and phrase choices. It’s exactly like I’m speaking to an exact, accurate American person, just like me.

                Sorry to inform, but you’re not doing great at the whole undercover thing here… I hope your supervisor doesn’t review this specific thread to evaluate your ability. Not really hitting the mark here… fellow American, typing on a Canadian keyboard.

                With such accurate and compelling work though, you could probably write copy for product packaging in Chinese manufacturing facilities exporting low prices goods to the US? Or maybe you could design those t-shirts Chinese teens will wear with American phrases, that don’t quite pass the test - Further innovative!!!
