What is the real threat/worry with China collecting all our data from TikTok?

867 views

Everyone collects our data… Apple, Google, third party apps… everyone. So what is the really concern with China doing it specifically? Everything I have tried to read about this just talks about how China will use it for ads, but that’s what tons of other tech companies are already doing… so why is China owning our data different?

The Chinese government has stolen personal information in an attempt to track and out American agents and assets operating within China (and probably around the world). The Chinese government hacked Marriot, health insurers, and the American employment agency to see who is working for the U.S. government.
