-
John Peterson (@johnpetersontx) reportedDoes the app have its problems with kids. Sure. It can, but did you read the Facebook Files? I’d much rather my daughter be on TikTok than Instagram. At least people are creative, innovative and talented on TikTok instead of posting a fake procured life. 3/
-
💧Dead Parrot Society (parody) (@MyFirstCousin) reportedPersonally I wear a false moustache, beard and dark glasses when I access TikTok, problem solved.
-
Slimdaddyoflagos (@slimdaddyoflife) reported@Drey_Santi Lol explain broo…there have been several allegations against Facebook and Google too…you make it sound as if TikTok can access more than Those companies…TikTok has never had any issue with Data Breach, you even say same for Meta or Google…the attack is on China and not TikTok
-
Corgi (@corgiwuzs) reportedI like how the govt main issue rn is TikTok. Like why not focus on something more important lmao but nah “let’s try and ban TikTok because that will do the world so good economically” lmao what a joke 😭
-
The Call is Coming from Inside the Nash (@Nash076) reportedIncidentally if we're going after TikTok on privacy grounds but not any of the OTHER major social media companies for the same issue, that's certainly ******* grounds for contesting the whole thing. But not the First Amendment.
-
Diane Masterson (@gingerbreadmiss) reported@KellieTallant_ Oh I had to unfollow, but last week a TikTok popped up...I was so horrified. If they were a working class family, social services would have intervened.
-
JanArgy (@JanArgy) reportedThey want to ban TikTok. Problem is the American public loves it.
-
Tristan (@TristanSpoof) reportedWatching the tiktok CEO answer questions from our government flawlessly and then repeatedly interrupting him or constantly ignoring his words sent me in a state of anger so fast. This is the problem with people today. No one lets you answer if it doesn’t fit their agenda.
-
The Real Unkle Nosa (@nosa_dominique) reported@temii_i D problem with Nigerians is dat we hardly ever read. We just watch tiktok, play bet and watch porn. Rubbish. The news have been on the Guardian and BBC and folks are still doubting the veracity of the texts convos btw the Ekweremadus? How pathetic.
-
yimu.eth (@chigbuinc) reported@Deedon65 @lme644 @ChuckCallesto From FTX to the current SVB crash. I think y'all have more organized scams to be worries about. Let's not get into the numerous school shootings and every other country trying to boycot the dollar but your zombie government is rather interested in color flags and banning TikTok.
-
Lin (@LinDbly) reportedIm confused. The TikTok issue is because they are controlled by China? Correct? Not China owned, but a Chinese national owns it? Right? Knowing the Chinese ppl don’t have rights, hence China controlled. Right? So we allow access to our personal info. Yeah, we’re dumb!
-
حماد (@hummaderz) reported@Kiofofah @generic_void I think this implies to all social media platforms. Meta, Twitter, SnapChat, Reddit, etc. All these companies can sell our information to who ever. Not saying it's not a security issue. However, more children are dying in school shooting yet here we are fighting over TikTok 💀
-
raq⁷🪞💜 (@luvlyjungkooky) reportedthere's literal porn on here but tiktok is the problem i dont get it😭
-
Rwema (@Rwema47347966) reportedI can’t wait to see TikTok being banned worldwide . Partisans party are working tirelessly on a legislation to protect the privacy of America citizens.There are suspicious activity that Chinese is spying on United States under TikTok umbrella .I do support this legislation .
-
Sam_sam1 (@Samsam143435923) reported@FrontlineGamer @JezCorden Investigations have shown they already are exploiting domestic US social media for nefarious purposes. Its a problem that has been worked on and needs work still. In fact this is just further reason to ban Tiktok, as well as the spying potential it has.
-
scar (@scarieee) reportedi think i have a problem. i searched up one cdrama i saw on tiktok and now i have 5 cdramas opened. WTF!
-
hnyhxc (@hnybnchsofgoats) reportedleave it to tiktok to teach me that every time i break out in hives after showering, working out, or have any sort of internal temperature increase is not normal like i thought and is probably cholinergic urticaria. the more ya know i guess
-
Kenny (@kennysgifs) reportedMight be an unpopular opinion but I think @tiktok has to be the worst app for creators … my work has been regurgitated to a ridiculous level and ive just found out these people make money from this @tiktok_uk @tiktok_us … any of the tokkerz can u fix this ?
-
༺ K ༻ (@justk_tingz) reportedWow are they really tryna ban TikTok rn when there are other pressing issues to worry about .. honestly what the heck they asked if the app connects to your home Wi-Fi .. bruh.. why are these people in charge 😭
-
Anshel Sag (@anshelsag) reportedMy wife is currently watching the @LoveisBlindShow through someone's @TikTok live because she can't get it to work on @Netflix. What an absolute disaster for Netflix. Whatever the numbers for the finale were going to be they are going to suck now because of this issue.
-
Cat 🌿 (@CatastrophicCB) reportedSay what you want about TikTok, but the only reason this is even an issue brought to the congress floor is because they’re scared because they can’t control it. They don’t get to decide what is shared and what isn’t. They’re TERRIFIED.
-
ProgRepCalifornian (@Cal5Independent) reportedI’ll admit TikTok has some problems, but some of the questions that guy was asked were so stupid. One guy literally asked if TikTok connects to your home WiFi
-
Derrick Reyes on IG and Linkedin @QueerlyDerrick (@QueerlyDerrick) reported@LizHagelthorn they need to put on this theater first to make their case to the American people crucifying TikTok for industry wide issues that all social media companies have to deal with the goal is to send people back to American owned social media platforms like this decomposing bird app
-
Ted Rogers (@TedRogersLA) reported@onlyanumber I agree that Chinese companies are a problem, and no fan of TikTok. I just think the solution is to prohibit any company from collecting and sharing personal data, not just Chinese ones.
-
Dahlia ☯️ (@dctz777) reportedPpl don’t have healthcare and America’s systems are broken but they’re worried about TikTok and women’s vaginas I hate this country
-
Babu Juma (@Babujuma1) reportedI used to think that the idea of leaders who don't have any idea about technology was a third world problem but watching the U.S Congress grilling the TikTok CEO am convinced it's universal. The Congressional leaders have no idea how Tiktok works. So who is financing the ban??
-
Bubba 🇺🇸🇮🇱 (@TexasRebelMan) reportedThis tiktok ban isn’t a right or left issue…it’s a 1st amendment issue. They keep trying to censor us….if the lobbyists were paying them this wouldn’t be an issue
-
Web design in Oslo and Around Europe (@mercadder) reported“They failed to see the solutions that are already being implemented or address issues of securing young users, which applies to the entire industry," Tiktok wrote.
-
sadie poppet's wire-chewing seminar (@MelancholyFlppr) reportedyou can say die, dying, dead, killed, and such on twitter. you're just not allowed to make actionable threats. stop typing like this is tiktok. (yes, i'm venting, yes there are bigger problems i am also mad about, i'm just sick of people typing like 12 year olds about them)
-
Dalanie Harris (@DalanieHarris) reportedJust spent a long *** time working on this TikTok then the app glitched & posted it without letting me add a caption, hashtags, & thumbnail. Now I have to wait for it to go through the review process before I can save it, remove the watermark, & repost. Good problem to have ig 😵💫
