౨ৎ (@bunirexic) reportedthere is this guy on tiktok that has thyroid issues and he can eat so much bc of that without gaining💔
-
HumblePoom.eth (@pdhooms) reportedLet me tell you TikTok isn’t your enemy. But them eating big tech’s lunch money from ad rev is the issue. Their HQ is America and Singapore based not China. Big tech will always censor your *** just remember that. #TikTok
-
AngryPoo (@AngryPoo_) reportedSenator Mark Warner News Conference on TikTok: truth is for the hundred million Americans daily on Tiktok on a average of 90 minutes a day. This is an issue, I imagine most of you would like your networks to get 90 minutes a day from 100 million Americans. 1/2
-
Web design in Oslo and Around Europe (@mercadder) reported“They failed to see the solutions that are already being implemented or address issues of securing young users, which applies to the entire industry," Tiktok wrote.
-
Dalanie Harris (@DalanieHarris) reportedJust spent a long *** time working on this TikTok then the app glitched & posted it without letting me add a caption, hashtags, & thumbnail. Now I have to wait for it to go through the review process before I can save it, remove the watermark, & repost. Good problem to have ig 😵💫
-
Rat (@NoGuapRat) reportedThe culture of the game is ****** too. Everyone either camps in a corner with a deployable shield or uses some broken class they found on tiktok because if they lose they go yell at their mom
-
Babu Juma (@Babujuma1) reportedI used to think that the idea of leaders who don't have any idea about technology was a third world problem but watching the U.S Congress grilling the TikTok CEO am convinced it's universal. The Congressional leaders have no idea how Tiktok works. So who is financing the ban??
-
⁷ (@mikrolcve) reported@eiIcado @aliyahInterlude Right attention spans are definitely shorter cause of short clips. But issue is all these other platforms have already adjusted to this. Feels like it going in circles. If tiktok does go down, likely people are gonna wanna create the new top app with the same format, tragic tbh
-
Billlardd (@Billlardd1800) reported@ur0tsuk1 facebook n tiktok have the same issues except one is filled with kids and the other is filled wit old people
-
Let Loose (@baevidtweets) reportedSince they want to talk about safety… why were there no congressional hearings or plans to ban twitch when someone live-streamed themselves going on a mass shooting? oh but tiktok is the biggest problem facing the us huh
-
Jonathan (Doe) (@DororoHawk) reportedThat's what the hearings really need to be about. Not this fake crap aimed at TikTok that wants nothing to do with that, & built their systems in a way that those tactics can't be used. That's the real issue here. TikTok's rise to success while not letting others abuse it.
-
James Good (@MermaidLion1) reported@mwala_harry @CGMeifangZhang But if they forbid US companies from working with tiktok then the app would be taken down from apps store worldwide.
-
John Peterson (@johnpetersontx) reportedDoes the app have its problems with kids. Sure. It can, but did you read the Facebook Files? I’d much rather my daughter be on TikTok than Instagram. At least people are creative, innovative and talented on TikTok instead of posting a fake procured life. 3/

n⛥dav (@goshpixi3) reported@tiktok change back my font or were gonna have a problem 😒
-
rusty shackleford (@hbicvee) reported****** around and ended up on “suped up Honda” tiktok. Gotta fix my algorithm again
-
ProgRepCalifornian (@Cal5Independent) reportedI’ll admit TikTok has some problems, but some of the questions that guy was asked were so stupid. One guy literally asked if TikTok connects to your home WiFi
-
Diane Masterson (@gingerbreadmiss) reported@KellieTallant_ Oh I had to unfollow, but last week a TikTok popped up...I was so horrified. If they were a working class family, social services would have intervened.
-
Jack Carroll (@DevilsFan169) reported@evacide Yeah, we need something like GDPR in this country, but we need it yesterday. I give California credit for trying to do something on their own, but that's just not good enough. And like you said, with a sweeping regulation like that, the TikTok is a non-issue.
-
Lin (@LinDbly) reportedIm confused. The TikTok issue is because they are controlled by China? Correct? Not China owned, but a Chinese national owns it? Right? Knowing the Chinese ppl don’t have rights, hence China controlled. Right? So we allow access to our personal info. Yeah, we’re dumb!
-
FreedomDog (@FDOGofAmerica) reported@realMartinLukas @HawleyMO The problem isn’t TikTok.. it’s peoples inability to think critically
-
Katie Paxton-Fear (@InsiderPhD) reportedAnyway besties the problem isn't TikTok the problem is data protection and you folks should seriously consider GDPR style legislation that helps protects your citizens data xxx
-
sugar (@ikahndyni) reportedThese ******* sitting on their *** cornering Mr. Chew mumbling nonsense about the issue. Putting the blame on Tiktok and not their own parenting.
-
Ted Rogers (@TedRogersLA) reported@onlyanumber I agree that Chinese companies are a problem, and no fan of TikTok. I just think the solution is to prohibit any company from collecting and sharing personal data, not just Chinese ones.
-
Sara (@Sarapant12) reportedcriticising tiktok is valid, but its not the source of the problem, as if google, facebook, instagram etc doesnt do the same thing at an even larger scale, the problem isnt one countruy, its international companies being able to sell data, and track-
-
Legally a Believer of Christ (@Tostky) reported@RealAlliKat I thought the issue with TikTok was it being Chinese owned? Thats the reason here in Canada at least.
-
🌌MonsterMutt (Twitch.TV/MonsterMutt)🌌 (@MonsterMutt_TTV) reportedSomeone find me this stupid vod that someone made and posted on Twitter. It's a tiktok video and its like when you get done working out or something and touch your boxers and dude goes to sniff their hand and it turns into that ******* aggressive nut cracker sniffing a candy cane
-
Merrick, Ron (@changfe17488430) reportedThe U.S. government is very clear about its own problems, but they will not face and face their own problems. What's more, they do is to throw away the problem and find a new problem to create a topic. TikTok is a new topic.
-
Bubba 🇺🇸🇮🇱 (@TexasRebelMan) reportedThis tiktok ban isn’t a right or left issue…it’s a 1st amendment issue. They keep trying to censor us….if the lobbyists were paying them this wouldn’t be an issue
-
KenDoll©🌍ᴺᴹ08 (@KelvinBraxton_) reportedit’s the newest employee poppin for me, DWHAP? it’s bussin ova hereeeeee.
