"While there are serious security concerns, it is still not proven that TikTok has acted maliciously. At least not any more than any other social media app like Facebook, Whatsup, and Instagram."

This made me chuckle.

Been fine without those apps spying on my life. TikTok is probably the least essential of the ones you mentioned.

Think it is time for Congress to pass some laws/regulations to specify what kind of apps are illegal to post for public downloads. American apps should be held to the same privacy/safety standards as Chinese ones.
