After reading this post a couple weeks ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21725139 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21725139), banning the app sounds like a good idea. I’m no expert on security, but the situation regarding Tik Tok’s practices sounds really bad.
- anaphor 7y agoAs soon as I heard about it, I knew right away that they would have some shady practices around how they handle user data. You don't grow that quickly without not having robust data protection safeguards/policies, let alone being run by a company in a jurisdiction not known for their robust data protection laws (to put it nicely).
