US Officials Warns Chinese Owned TikTok App Is Stealing All Your Personal Data
(MAGANews.org) – On the latest podcast episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, Joe expressed his deep concerns after taking a closer look at the terms and services of TikTok.
The social media app is one of the most popular and widely used – and it’s also owned by the Chinese company Bytedance.
What many users don’t know is China’s Civil-Military Fusion Policy, and the 2017 National Intelligence Law demands that all private Chinese businesses must share information and data with the Chinese government.
During the podcast, Rogan read a small paragraph from Tiktok’s privacy policy and which stated,
“We collect certain information about the device you use to access the platform, such as your IP address, and user region. User-agent, mobile carrier, time zone settings, identifiers for advertising purposes, model of your device, the device system, network type, device IDs, your screen resolution and operating system, app and file names, and types.”
He continued explaining that the app can also track what you type by monitoring your keystrokes.
When you download the Tiktok app, you agree to TikTok’s terms and services and privacy policies. And according to the “fine print,” they can use any other computer device regardless of whether you’re logged into the app.
This is a massive security breach of Americans’ data and security!
Earlier this month, the Chinese government placed military tanks in front of banks, stopping people from withdrawing money.
Some bank protestors were arrested and beaten for trying to gain access to their bank accounts. This goes to show that if the Chinese government can do this to their own citizens, imagine what they will do with your data and information.
President Trump and supporters like US Senator Josh Hawley warned Americans about TikTok.

Maybe it’s time for the Biden administration to take action and ban the social media app in the US.
But given the relationship Joe Biden has with China – that’s going to be highly unlikely.
