The fake names on TT are not what is the risk. Its the HUGE amoumt of metadata collected by the app and the opaque nature of its storage and permanence.
Those are also bad? Why TT is being talked about is that the bullshit Facebook and Google pull is normalised now so people don't talk about it as much.
Yes I don't trust these companies, but I sure as hell trust them more than Bytedance or the Chinese government. The amount of whataboutism in this thread.. Do we have a lot of Bytedance employees on hn?
