-
⁷ (@mikrolcve) reported@marianarey3s @sevsohouston @aliyahInterlude I can agree on this take, but there’s still Insta, youtube, Facebook. Plus, those 3 all have short clip formats just like tiktok. Unless they do something about that too I don’t think their goals is to fix addiction. They wanna control tiktok but know they can’t, so down it goes.
-
Mike (@mikeeronx) reportedThe fact that they claim Tiktok is a security issue all the while Facebook literally sold user data to Cambridge Analytica is so hypocritical
-
nicole⁸ (@arianateez) reportedomg leave tiktok alone and worry about REAL ISSUES
-
Mind Rambling (@RamblingMyMind) reportedThe irony of Congress working to #BanTikTok, censoring 150 million Americans, damaging or destroying 5 million small to medium businesses & likely putting 7,000 Americans out of work because of China... Where TikTok isn't accessible because they censor the Internet. #KeepTikTok
-
David Matheny (@DavidMatheny1) reportedTikTok ownership and server locations are details. Data can be moved easily. The real problem is that their servers (like too many others) contain data that should never leave the privacy of our phones and computers. We need legislation to limit harvesting of our private data.
-
Pamastymui (@Pamastymui) reported@AtomicRakoon @EvilVizier Some women on the TikTok also pointed this out - the problem is not the virtual/visual augmentation of the face/body,but the INTERNAL/EXTERNAL perception of augmentation. Also,ad externalized VIRTUAL augmentation to people,who have weak external perception of their body-image. 🤪
-
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/

Bro Sammie (@FungiSammie) reportedSo the problem is the American surveillance state obviously #TikTok
-
𝘔𝘢𝘵𝘵 𝘏𝘰𝘱𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵 🦷👨🍳🏃🏼♂️ (@Matt_Hopcraft) reported@nexus1111 @abcmelbourne @tiktok It’s the problem when things go haywire because no-one has properly assessed you first, and then you need to pay to clean up the problems. Unfortunately we’re seeing it more and more.
-
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
-
Rory Faulkner (@RoryFaulkner80) reported@kevincarrico Surely it also neglects the issues of reciprocity (or lack of) and Tiktok’s inability to shield data from the CCP
-
Perenelle Tecumseh Kesler (@Bilbo9191) reported@Alan7615 TikTok is a problem and must be addressed. India has banned it for good reason, but all their data is still stored. And if China wants it not banned, then the can UN ban Facebook and Instagram. No, it’s not a one way street.

De light (@joshuam68498903) reported@jaokoburu thats a small issue ata izo twitter na tiktok atafunga there is no room for impunity that comes after every election
-
fahtPumPumgyal (@Debbie_ft2) reportedAmerica is a ******* SICK JOKE bro. There’s soooo many pressing life or death issues but they’re spending their time I court to ban tiktok??? An app people got so much opportunities on?? But they’re not worried about gun control laws or women rights huh. Okie
-
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
-
beni | natural blonde (@eebeeni10) reportedSimulated plane crash content on tiktok make my brain go brrrrrrrrrrr
-
10player (@the_10player) reportedwhy were they so quick to gather together and agree on shitting on tiktok instead of quickly gathering together and solving our inflation problem, or the ohio train derailment. if they are so pressed on data collection get oracle in a hearing, or interrogate your meta lobbyists
-
90 lb vlone thug (@griccs) reportedI think banning tiktok may just fix everyone
-
rusty shackleford (@hbicvee) reported****** around and ended up on “suped up Honda” tiktok. Gotta fix my algorithm again
-
Kaien (@ilikebobaXD) reported@escapedkiwi @JoesDaily @Kat_Cammack You’re a embarrassment. A joke lol. Their questions were general problems of social media itself. All they are doing is targeting TikTok for having the same problems as other social medias. Some the question itself is ridiculous and reveals that they don’t know technology
-
shen (@dropdeadshn) reportedwhy is this congress more concerned about banning tiktok than prioritizing more pressing issues 🤡😒
-
m (@920401) reportedI don't even use Tiktok but all these finger pointing by the US Congress, for home issues that they should be responsible for, is godamn embarassing. Hypocritical clowns.
-
FreedomDog (@FDOGofAmerica) reported@realMartinLukas @HawleyMO The problem isn’t TikTok.. it’s peoples inability to think critically
-
Abdul Mufeez Shaheed (@abdulmshaheed) reported@NeisauT @angry_kpra Mrs. Waka's tiktok isn't working then. Hmm.
-
Price Action Trader Pro ∞/21M (@BTC_PA_Analysis) reported@barelyyalex @DailyLoud The problem with tiktok and even instagram, in the USA, is that it has turned an entire generation of their women into s3x workers rather than functional members of society.
-
dwika (@dwikakiku) reported@BCDAJG fun fact serem, the girl from the tiktok you screenshoted, died in a car crash 4 hari lalu ...
-
Casey Lytle (@CaseyLytle) reportedIs the problem that the Chinese government can get our data from tiktok or that our government can't? How about tightening it up so neither can get it? I bet Congress wouldn't like that option as much.
-
Stephen Kocen (@Kocen4Congress) reportedI don't get the problem with tiktok How will forcing a sale from Chinese to US group keep us safer? They would sell the data anyway. Is China going to use dad dances to take over America? Can someone explain?
-
819 (@junwei_23) reportedThe US congress is a big ******* embarrassment. Children die because of tiktok? Children also die from gun violence in your country, fix that before you try to fix a social media app.
-
Filipino Fietser - Jay #NoToPAREX (@ecliptiko) reportedI've watch videos of the Tiktok Hearing in US Congress on TikTok itself. TikTok Hearing revealed that Congress is the problem. Sad life.
