I understand what you’re saying, but I’m not sure I’m any more worried about the Chinese getting peoples personal data and promoting propaganda than I am Twitter or Facebook or YouTube, or any of the others. I disagree with the idea of singling out, TikTok for doing what everybody else does. If there were comprehensive laws that regulate EVERYONE from accessing our data I’d feel better about this whole thing.
As far as spreading propaganda, I believe the education system could focus on educating people to be better armed intellectually for dealing with propaganda. Unfortunately, even propaganda is free-speech.
