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.”
the most apt punishment for these fascist supporting billionaires is to tank their investments to the ground by not using them
Won’t matter we have to tank the entire market at this point.
Yeah the top 10% in the US account for 55% of market activity. There’s no way boycotts and divesting are as impactful as they used to be. Thankfully there are many other methods of throwing down the system, but they have to be used together. A general strike by itself will not accomplish much, but that combined with community militias and fierce mutual aid networks caring for neighbors, has a higher chance. Combined with mass noncompliance and subterfuge in multiple layers, we might be able to win this without a full hot civil war. But we’ll see.
