Tik Tok

I went to war with my TikTok App. It was pre-installed on my Galaxy, and though I never had an account, and deleted the app it still used like 20 GB of data (the exact same rate as before deletion) in 3 weeks in a way I couldn't stop. Pissed me off.

The only way to block it was to disable background data after deleting the app.

Apparently that's all Samsung devices of late. Accusations of trying to make it a compulsory app litter the internet.

I'm all for free choice to be exploited, but that CCP weapon needs to be off every American phone and replaced with a troll meme of Xi. That's just my opinion.

@google - Why does TikTok collect data after I delete the app.

TikTok sees itself as being able to use that information, even though that third party has no interest in being on TikTok," he said. Another way you might end up in TikTok's collection of data is if you've appeared on screen in any photos or videos that your friends who use TikTok uploaded.

I'm thinking that's a CCP mindset on top of standard industry practice.
