Fun fact: these days, Tiktok is the main social media outlet for uncensored pro-Palestine activism, owing to the fact that Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube tend to censor most criticism of the Israeli apartheid government.
THAT'S why they're suddenly pretending that its spying on users is any worse than that of the others (it's not) now of all times: AIPAC and other major donors are feeling the heat and want to shut people up.
That and because it's an election year and the combination of xenophobia and pretending to care about online privacy appeals to a wide selection of gullible prospective voters.
