For 3 years, I highlighted a lot of cases where phone makers or app developers uploaded user data to their servers without their consent. You can't be more paranoid than me.

But still proofs are needed. Accusing someone without any proofs is plain stupidity.

Show me facts that proove:
- TikTok is a spy app
- TikTok is taking personal data from their users without their consent

Then, I will be happy to do my job and expose them as I always do.

Following my 1st article, I continued my research and I discussed with a lot of skilled researchers who worked on TikTok.

Truth is:
- TikTok is doing A/B testing and so collect info about how the users used TikTok. This is a common practise, not specific to TikTok

- TikTok is taking a lot of info about your device. This is a common practise, not specific to TikTok. During this collection they are a little bit borderline on some aspects but nothing crazy and I hope they will fix that (#TikTok: we see you)

I reversed Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat. The data collection made by TikTok is equivalent to these apps.

Is it a good thing? Damn no!

But the truth is very far from what you can see on the news
