Almost half of Americans are using TikTok. If the Chinese govt. can spy on Americans than this is definitely a national security concern. I understand that American companies like FB and Google are doing it too but hopefully they are not selling the data to Chinese companies.

After I typed that I feel FB and Google would sell data to highest bidder.

Maybe it is time to focus on privacy and clearly understanding what apps are gathering from users and how that data is being used/sold.
