The bigger problem with TikTok is that the Chinese government can gain control of the things I see and the order I see them in. They can subtly influence our political discussion. Vivek's "solution" doesn't address that part.

I deleted TikTok about a month ago for that reason. It started as a mindless short video app and then the videos got more specific and interesting to me personally. Then every once in a while I'd get some strange video with a pro Russia or anti USA or pro china stance and it was painfully obvious. Then those strange videos became more common. It was almost like they try and send you subliminal messages to change your way of thinking about a topic intentionally.

Almost?
