obedience4: Why not? China has different rules, therefore they require a different app. Simple. |

obedience4: Their own rules. Like censoring certain types of information when requested. China is a sovereign nation remember? And keeping data of its citizens in China. With regards american apps in china, list is too long to complete: Windows, Android, iOS, MacOS, UNIX, MS Teams, IE, Edge, MS office, OneDrive, Firefox, Acrobat reader, Teamviewer, Oracle, DB2, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Winzip, WinRAR, most open source software, and most games, etc. As for the Indian government statement, that was the excuse they gave. Everyone knows tik tok and other Chinese apps got banned after the border dispute they had with China. |

wwwihy:yeah I agree with u. Him lambasting USA for something china are popular for just doesn't make sense. |

Good move because China started first by banning other social media platforms like FB, Instagram etc. |

Ejiakusmith:Y'all should just shut up if you don't know what to say. Ha! so because US said it, it automatically means it's true? Do you even know the volume of data Facebook and Google extracts from your phones? A lot of Nigerians are so dumb |

Freak0: Kingcalls: I watch videos on tiktok a lot. Most of the content I'm shown is nature documentaries. Tiktok's algorithm shows you videos based on the type of videos you like. If you're seeing videos of dancing ladies, you need to ask yourself some questions. Ignore all these nonsense excuses the US is giving, the reason they're attacking tiktok is the same reason they attacked Huawei; they're trying every way possible to reduce China's dominance. If tiktok was a US-owned company you won't see US attack them this way 1 Like |

Blackfire: I disagree, I used to believe this as well. The algorithm works well. Ensure you watch only short videos on what interest you or adds value to you. You can search for what interest you to avoid time wasting. The moment a "nonsense" abi "mumu" video pops up...in 2 to 5 seconds move to the next, do this for a couple of minutes, its algorithm will automatically prevent similar videos from coming to you again. Similar videos to those you love watching will now be lined up for you. You will be amazed when you do this. You need to ensure you do this everytime you open your TikTok. |

Artscollection:Ignorance is truly a disease. So you think the US can't easily have access to your data? It's pathetic the way Nigerians willingly choose to swallow every crap from the US without thinking |

SpartanJ: The person you quoted, and a lot of others, are very ignorant. I see mostly nature documentaries on my tiktok because that's what I watch the most. These ones choose to watch dancing ladies and complain that's what tiktok shows them 1 Like |

YourKarma: The USA are not complaining about the content of tiktok but the data it collects from USA citizens, The parent company that owns tiktok bytedance it's CEO was a former pLA general and has close ties to the communist party in China |
Re: US House Of Reps Votes To Ban TikTok in US by Artscollection: 10:52pm On Mar 13 |
YourKarma: Anu ohia!! Are we arguing about that atleast you can seek redress at court unlike China that don't care about your privacy |
Re: US House Of Reps Votes To Ban TikTok in US by Kingcalls: 10:55pm On Mar 13 |
YourKarma: Unfortunately a majority of people that watch it have the algorithm pushing it to ass and twerks |

123yes:/ You are an African so you can never understand. You swallow every nonsense thrown your way. China is using a different algorithm for her citizens. YouTube is not available in China. The two countries know the games they are playing that will be incomprehensible to an average African mind even in a thousand years. / |

123yes:it not about that bro It more about privacy theft TikTok is owned by china and china is a friend to Russia Now do the calculation your self The more reason they banned Hawaii too The more information ona American citizens re with these foreign owned companies especially from china is a big risk to Americans If TikTok wish to remain in America Let them bring their headquarters to American Under america law and rules and also pay taxes And why china go banned Facebook, google, twitter, WhatsApp etc from their internet space Binance was an example America no de joke with their enemies especially china and Russia |
