With the change in TikTok ownership, TikTok users in the U.S. are collectively freaking out over the company’s updated privacy policy after being alerted to the changes through an in-app message.
The revised document details the U.S. joint venture’s conditions for using its service, including the specific location information it may collect.
Many users are also posting to social media about language found in the policy, which says that TikTok could collect sensitive information about its users, including their “sexual life or sexual orientation, status as transgender or nonbinary, citizenship or immigration status.”



Has this impacted the app availible in europe etc? I don’t use platforms I cannot use outside of a browser, dunno how much better that is
Nah we use the Chinese one
The USA version of Tik Tok is a different version than the one used in the rest of the world. As far as I know the USA version is now owned by USA? So I guess they can do all sorts of crazy things with it that won’t affect the rest of the service
