Made in china, under complete control of ccp as every big company in china is. It is very unfortunate that younger generation is essentially being raised by tiktok and its algorithm.

Facebook is bad, no doubts about that, it's also unavoidable as the only social media for most people, and it's also not fun for most people. Tiktok on the other hand is interesting, it's captivating, the algorithm tailors it to you, microdoses you with dopamine. I'm sure that same algorithm can be, if desired, used to push pro-china/pro-russia/anti-west narratives to varying degrees of subtlety, tailor-made to each user, to further destabilize certain countries, united states included.

Social media is dangerous, social media controlled by a potential enemy is dangerous on a whole another level.
