TikTok

There's talk of it being Banned from UK government devices and phones our Prime minister announced just yesterday .. apparently over fears that China can infiltrate Government security ..


From the Guardian today..

The app is under pressure over its ownership by the Beijing-based ByteDance, with politicians on both sides of the Atlantic warning that the Chinese state could access its data or manipulate what people view on the app via its recommendation algorithm.

The Sunday Times reported that a review of TikTok had been carried out by the government security group, a team within the Cabinet Office, and that the National Cyber Security Centre had identified security risks related to the app.
 

China doesn't even need to cyber hack our infrastructures firewalls with the infamous "Trojan Horse" virus. We just opened our front door for them. Brilliant.

Thanks for posting.
 
Yeah, I can take it or leave it... When I do get on it, some of the stupidity and fun stuff keeps me going... But I can take it or leave it... Is it true it was originally from China?
It's not just from there originally... the company owner of TikTok is ByteDance which is indeed a Chinese company. @mike4lorie
