I don't have a TikTok acccount and I don't intend to make one. I could use it to get some money and to get some clients but I don't want to do it either. I found the entire thing useless because I have heard some bad things about the Chinese people I being a software developer I know how easy it is to steal some personal data from some app users. It's not something I do because I have never found use for it, I just know how to do it.
Nevertheless, after months of anticipation, President Biden finally signed the TikTok divestment into law this week. That act will force ByteDance to either sell TikTok to another company within a year, or see the app banned from US app stores. I don't give a damn about that not using it but you may be interested in the issue. What do you think? For now is it a wise move to rid control of the social app from the Chinese government, or is it government overreach before TikTok has done anything wrong?
