TikTok has a negative influence, but no worse than Instagram, Facebook or (still worse) OnlyFans. And it's good that TikTok exists to offer competition.

YouTube, especially, has lost viewers to TikTok, especially among young females.

Facebook organizes user data before selling it to China etc. FB is no better than tiktok. IMO worse, because FB tries to force users to upload government IDs.

I don’t think you understand the problem.

When you download and use Tik Tok, you sign over information on your phone to the software developers. And not just from the Tik Tok app, but from all apps on your phone. All the time.

Individually, this is meaningless. Combined with all of the other streams of information, it paints a pretty significant picture of everything electronic in the country.
