Due to eavesdropping concerns by China, some ppl use a cheap "burner cell phone" for their Tik Tok use.  Is do'able

Sorry, not sorry, but I want nothing to do with tick-tock.

It's probably just me, but I'm getting an uneasy feeling that someone is trying to sell me a bridge on Tik Tok.

@sugar plum 

Why would anyone try to sell you anything on Tick Tok?

Hi @Sooner 

I'm not here to argue with anyone but if you use Google, Amazon, Alexa, Facebook and maybe more I'm not aware of, you're already totally exposed.

@monicakm I won't argue either, but the people I know in highest level IT security are my source.  And no, I won't engage with that web site ever.

I wanted to add my warnings, agreeing with your post, @Sooner,  and all the other posters who responded in the same vein.  TikTok is far worse than any of the other tech companies, platforms, or devices mentioned earlier in this thread as comparison.  Most of you know I come here with extensive IT and associated security experience,  and I find this beyond worrisome.  And, additionally concerning is that social media influencers are being strongly encouraged to advocate for and promote TikTok, particularly as they are highly motivated for the additional financial income they can generate there, and in the process they are bringing an enormous number of new users to that platform.  Please, be careful, everyone.🌻

Very well stated @dooBdoo! Thank you!

@dooBdoo 

I don't disagree at all and will consider myself warned.
