Every time my grandmother would tell us to lock our car doors, she followed it with "It's not what they can take out... it's what they can put in." To this day, I actually don't have a clue what that means lol... but I can sort of apply it to TikTok. Basically, it's not just what information the true owners of TikTok can take from your phone (essentially everything). It's what propaganda they can spread to influence their highly impressionable young users. After all, super-users are not called "influencers" for no good reason-- the platform itself having the final say what everyone actually sees. As the old expression goes, say something often enough and loud enough and people will start to believe it. In this case, it means simply limiting the reach of a point of view contrary to what you want people to believe. When said arbiters are essentially an arm of the Chinese government, then the term free speech only loosely applies. - Jeff
