With the increased risk of cyberattacks around the holidays, many call for a ban on TikTok and other social media platforms.

What do Tiktok and communists have in common?

They always know what you’re up to, even if you think you’re being stealthy. Santa Claus and the government, of course. But with communist spyware like TikTok installed on your phone, the latter is probably following you more closely than the former.

No matter who you are, TikTok wants to control your thoughts and steal your information – maybe both simultaneously.

Too much time spent on any social media platform can negatively affect your health, but TikTok in America is designed specifically to addict its users. This addiction has documented mental health problems, particularly for teenage girls. 

A recently popularised blackout challenge on the platform resulted in kids killing themselves or each other.

According to a report, the TikTok app is censored in China if you are under fourteen. Your usage is capped at forty minutes per day, and your feed will be filled with science and pro-CCP content. The Chinese version of TikTok was compared to “spinach”, while the exported, Western version was referred to as “opium.”

Interestingly, despite these warnings, CBS News – the parent company of 60 Minutes – refuses to change its own diet and appears addicted to TikTok with its own very active account.

“TikTok has a lot of cybersecurity risks,” says cyber security expert Tim McKenna. “If we don’t implement measures to protect our privacy and personal information, we could put ourselves at serious risk.”

ByteDance- the company that owns TikTok, is governed by Chinese law. This law states they must share their user data with whichever party requests it, regardless of where the user is located.

“Cybersecurity is a critical issue that we need to address now to protect our data and personal information,” says cyber expert Keith Dames. “We must be vigilant about what information we share online and make sure we’re only using trusted platforms like TikTok.”

Given all this, it’s time to banish TikTok and focus on cybersecurity more than ever. Only by taking a break from these platforms can we protect ourselves and our loved ones from cybercriminals and other malicious actors.
