Who they are sharing it with shouldn't even matter. The act of covertly collecting it and giving users no real recourse is the problem, and what we should regulate. Turn the social networks into dumb feeds driven by explicit user choices rather than algorithms. Solve that problem, and you solve the TikTok problem. But people don't want to talk about that. They want to ban the platforms they perceive as being used to push an opposing political agenda while preserving the platforms they themselves abuse for the same purpose. It is almost funny seeing people who directly benefited from Cambridge Analytica/Facebook turn around and complain about TikTok.
