A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That is not the topic at discussion.
Yes it is. Why do you think thah TikTok removes that content in the first place? It 's because they are afraid to give paranoid, xenophobic, republicans any "reason" to ban them.
I actuallyethink that you are trying to derail the discussion into "you showld never trust tiktok".
TikTok is a cancer that always does this. It is a tool for censorship, propaganda and population control. You should never use TikTok. It is extremely unethical to do so.
That sure are some strong claims. Anything to back those up? Propaganda by whom/for what? Population control of what population by whom? How can a distribution platform also be a tool for cencorship?
TikTok is as all Chinese companies controlled by the CCP. There is extremely plenty of evidence of TikTok's very sophisticated censorship: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_by_TikTok
