    I find it amusing that Americans trust Chinese social media over American businesses.

      I think it’s more of a general apathy towards privacy than it is trusting any particular organization

        Yeah, the people on TikTok (or RedNote) aren’t really the ones concerned about big corporations on anything but an aesthetic level.

      So the Chinese government is spying on me, I’m literally never going to China, plus they have backdoor access to like every cheap security camera on the planet.

      It’s a better position than giving all my info to one of the u.s. companies where it has a real effect on me, especially now.

        I suppose it’s one group that they know won’t be selling data back to the American government
