Nothing in this article or anywhere else presents any actual evidence that the Chinese government ever had direct access to US user data, and the claims presented here all predate the transition to Oracle servers, which were conducted in cooperation with the US government specifically to ensure that US user data wouldn’t be available to the Chinese government. The easiest route to our data has been and continues to be buying it from US companies, which is still completely legal.
US tiktok data has been hosted by Oracle on their own servers on US soil for several years now, China doesn’t have access to it. Also they can and do just buy your user data from US companies. If you don’t like Tiktok then you don’t have to use it, but fear of Chinese surveillance is a stupid reason to avoid the app.
Weak, try harder

You have the political philosophy of a petulant toddlet
Never said it didn’t, dumbass
US citizenship is not a requirement for patriotic brain rot, and you’ve got it bad. The real reason for military tension is the US, a country that has been at war nonstop for more than two centuries now and has military bases on every continent except Antarctica, fucking duh
“Extremely aggressive” “chinese imperialism” lol sure thing patriot, let me know when they start bombing and building military bases. China isn’t going to attack Taiwan, they don’t need to. The US will alienate Taiwan the same way we’re alienating all of our other “allies” and China will be there to pick up the pieces with no bloodshed required. And fyi “you’re from place i don’t like” isn’t a particularly strong argument.
Delusional, China has no reason to go to war. Their current strategy of just existing & improving their infrustructure while the US actively dismantles our own economic and diplomatic control systems & alienates our allies is working beautifully. If there is a war between the US and China it’ll 100% be at our provocation, and if we succeed in provoking such a war we will absolutely get our asses handed to us.
The US was never a particularly good representative republic on it’s best days, and those days are far behind us. Calling the US a democracy of any kind is a lie.
To my left is my dog Courage, she weighs about 50 lbs so having her shoved up my ass would probably end my life
