On Fox News there is a story stating that Trump is going to "Ban" Tik Tok today. If he does he is making a terrible mistake. Tik Tik isn't spy ware, it's the only social media platform in the US where there is truly "Free Speech'.
The Trump Message and his followers are huge on Tik Tok, and people are waking up to the truth all the time on Tik Tok.
Most of you probably are unfamiliar with Tik Tok, it's way more than just "hotties", not that there's anything wrong with that. It is truly the Trump Movement of the youth. Trump is killing his own campaign platform and doesn't even know it.
This isn't about spy ware, it's about Zuckerburg not getting your data, it's about Bill Gates not getting your data, and more importantly, it's about the Conservative message being broadcast for all to see unhindered.
What a terrible mistake you are making Mr. President, please don't do this.
Thank you!
Hey, DollyCali! Long tome no talk to. Hope you are well, awesome gal!
I’d like to help you son, but you’re too young to vote
We have too many elderly people on Free Republic who do not understand technology and have knee jerk reactions to technology.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
With all due respect, sir, I do not fall into that category. While I am getting on in years, information technology is my livelihood, and I am quite good at it.>>>>>>>>>>>>>
TikTok is spyware.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Laz, it is indeed Spyware
I am 70, but I do understand data harvesting technology.
I am highly entertained by what President Trump will do with TikToc. We will know Monday or Tuesday. What the President is also doing , IS showing Twitter, Facebook, Apple, and Instagram what will happen to them if they continue to f**k with Conservative postings on their respective platforms. That’s the entertainment factor right there.
Its going to give them the staggers and jags.
Among U.S. over 18, TikTok brought in 22.2 million mobile unique visitors in January, 23.2 million in February and 28.8 million in March. In April, that number jumped to 39.2 million—three times the 12.6 million who used the app last April, according to the most recent Comscore data provided to Adweek (note – Comscore only tracks users over 18).
Again, massive adult crowd on Tik Tok, they’ve taken it over, also massive Trump movement on Tik Tok because it’s the only free speech platform out there.
I agree. I have a 13 year old daughter who loves it.”
You need to get it off her computer. The dangers of it are well documented.
TikTok is one of the ways my daughter can be creative and share things with her friends. Which she has limited access to with covid. Trump isn’t going to ban TikTok. He is trying to get it sold to Microsoft. No evidence my daughter’s videos could be weaponized by China. Maybe they steal some data or metrics that aren’t well locked down by Apple.
