wtf @op

Why do you think data is the most valuable asset in the world right now

How do you think Facebook became Facebook and not another myspace, friendster or tumblr

They collected data. You think they using data just to sell you coca cola and disney?

Get real

Anti China propaganda ITT

China numba one!!

i didn’t even read the initial op before the title change. yeah information warfare is scary but i doubt the average american gives a f***. & they really should’ve went through with the tik tok ban but china came up with a deal that essentially bought out the rights to the data iirc

Man there are so many ways to approach this. The psychology of marketing, ads, social class etc.

Our minds are being formed on how to think and what to accept. We don't accept the truth, we accept convenience and what massages us.

The data collection, use of fake news via the military, religions, news, FILMS etc. is major.

I wish I knew more about the TikTok issues but in general, all of this open visual data can be used against our will. China's surveillance system is pretty effective and America has used similar technology to track down protestors, rioters etc.

How communications works as an industry is somethin else.

Why is tik tok so bad?

Data is the most valuable asset because overall it's the worlds mindset and emotions. When you remove any 'negative' or 'threatening' information that's contrarian towards where you as a leader decides to lead your country, continent etc.

With this information, one can view the a***ytics to social engineer almost any outcome. It's similar to efficient offenses and defenses in sports. Billy Bean's style is a simple example of 'data collection'. In our era, the Warriors play style that's predicated on the 3s and small ball essentially engineered them a couple championships and consistent winning seasons.

the app itself is cool. it's more so the data concerns and how it could be used that's the issue for some people. personally idc how my data is being tracked. as long as you're an active user on the internet your digital footprint is already being monitored regardless

Owned and operated by bytedance which is a chinese based tech company

Imagine xing picks up the phone and calls zuckerberg to send over whatever data fhey have on whatever target that has tiktok on their child's phone

The US military banned it because of it because it was basically turning phones into surveillance drones wsj.com/amp/articles/u-s-military-bans-tiktok-over-ties-to-china-11578090613

On top of that it removes anything negative about CCP

So it's clearly china's biggest weapon when it comes to direct access to US consumer

Just the other day it surpassed google

Unless you’re Peter Parker, Bruce Wayne, etc no one cares about any of your information enough for you to be concerned. I promise you

MGS2
