-
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.
-
mike (@mike_j2011) reportedI don't recommend any shot videos including TikTok, WeChat channels and YouTube shorts because they waste time. The problem of youtube is it won't allow you to turn the shorts off unless you uninstall YouTube altogether.
-
Jack Carroll (@DevilsFan169) reported@evacide Yeah, we need something like GDPR in this country, but we need it yesterday. I give California credit for trying to do something on their own, but that's just not good enough. And like you said, with a sweeping regulation like that, the TikTok is a non-issue.
-
MYKiNG (@myking2023) reportedSo I slow down the ***** lyrics she says in her TikTok’s & it’s like she’s saying the nasty stuff to me & I *** so hard
-
fahtPumPumgyal (@Debbie_ft2) reportedAmerica is a ******* SICK JOKE bro. There’s soooo many pressing life or death issues but they’re spending their time I court to ban tiktok??? An app people got so much opportunities on?? But they’re not worried about gun control laws or women rights huh. Okie
-
SCW (@SCWOFTX) reportedI have no problem living without tiktok...Never had the desire nor need to use it. Never saw what got people addicted to it.
-
Ms Creant (@nexus1111) reported@Matt_Hopcraft @abcmelbourne @tiktok Yup! Especially if it’s essentially an anonymous app tech company. I was monitored via an app admittedly (very handy for lockdown) but any issues I had (attachments falling off breaking, bites not settling etc) I was a tram ride away from seeing a human.
-
°✩ starfire ✩° (@idkwhatsreality) reportedour govt sounds and looks ******* idiotic as **** doing all this over tiktok like can y’all be ******* fr … so many issues plaguing our country and y’all wanna fight over this ???? they’re not even showing good arguments having solid points or bringing about confirmed evidence..
-
Howard Wu (@thehwtw) reportedI can't even login to my @tiktok account that i dont post lol
-
traveller (@lostpringle911) reported**** you @Instagram and @TikTok for banning my comments just because you find words like ‘slow’, ‘lazy’, ‘annoying’ and ‘stupid’ offensive. Get a grip you fat *****.
-
Denys Davydov 🇺🇦 (Pilot Blog) (@DenysDavydovUA) reportedIt is the problem of industry. You may find same stuff in Meta. In case of TikTok US government can’t control the information. So US said that either US corporations buy TikTok or it will be banned in US. It is not about the information leaks but to whom it leaks to… But still
-
Reni Susanti (@kirana_chand) reportedMr. Chew, does Tiktok access home wifi network? This is one of the stupidest question i've ever read. The problem is, this is a question from a congressman. Fool. Ignorant. Basically, just a very stupid question #tiktok #savetiktok
-
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.
-
10player (@the_10player) reportedwhy were they so quick to gather together and agree on shitting on tiktok instead of quickly gathering together and solving our inflation problem, or the ohio train derailment. if they are so pressed on data collection get oracle in a hearing, or interrogate your meta lobbyists
-
m (@920401) reportedI don't even use Tiktok but all these finger pointing by the US Congress, for home issues that they should be responsible for, is godamn embarassing. Hypocritical clowns.
-
🐈⬛ 𝑪𝒍𝒂𝒖 🪐 (@McGrath_Katic) reportedI only have TikTok for Adele, in times of the pandemic I never downloaded the app and well now I have a problem because I think it's like Tw that I post stupid things that nobody reads and then I comment on random videos and it turns out that the comment has thousands of likes 🫠
-
Luca (@WeHateLuca) reportedinsane that they could not get competent people on that tiktok hearing board. there are genuine issues with tiktok and NONE of them were raised
-
🈵🍑 (@mantaoli) reported@caitoz TikTok hasn't broken any US law, but they will pass the Chinese Exclusion Act 2.0 to ban it.
-
THE Ethan Maxwell (@TheEthanMaxwell) reported from Staley Crossroads, South CarolinaThe ONLY WAY that the government gets their greedy hands off of TikTok is for the population to ruin the main company lobbying for the removal of TikTok. Meta is a slimy corporation with much worse data issues than TikTok. Sell meta stock and short tf out of it! #ditchmeta
-
🌌MonsterMutt (Twitch.TV/MonsterMutt)🌌 (@MonsterMutt_TTV) reportedSomeone find me this stupid vod that someone made and posted on Twitter. It's a tiktok video and its like when you get done working out or something and touch your boxers and dude goes to sniff their hand and it turns into that ******* aggressive nut cracker sniffing a candy cane
-
n⛥dav (@goshpixi3) reported@tiktok change back my font or were gonna have a problem 😒
-
IWouldRatherBeReading (@DebbieStaplet15) reported@EVargasTV I've found a community on TikTok. I'd miss it a lot. Something will rise to take it's place; developers are already working on it.
-
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??
-
TGW (@tgwginger) reportedThe tiktok congress meeting is one of the most pathetic & cringy things I’ve ever seen. They didn’t even let the CEO answer there questions. They didn’t care what he was saying at all. And with all the problems in the country, they choose to focus on a social media app. Pathetic
-
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
-
Hervé (@herve___) reportedThe only problem they have with tiktok is because it's a chinese company...
-
Pamastymui (@Pamastymui) reported@AtomicRakoon @EvilVizier Some women on the TikTok also pointed this out - the problem is not the virtual/visual augmentation of the face/body,but the INTERNAL/EXTERNAL perception of augmentation. Also,ad externalized VIRTUAL augmentation to people,who have weak external perception of their body-image. 🤪
-
JanArgy (@JanArgy) reportedThey want to ban TikTok. Problem is the American public loves it.
-
THE ANGELS WEPT (@jyrpouting) reporteddives stay bringing tiktok problems to twitter like baby they share half a brain cell on that app why are you making it our issue 💀
-
819 (@junwei_23) reportedThe US congress is a big ******* embarrassment. Children die because of tiktok? Children also die from gun violence in your country, fix that before you try to fix a social media app.
