Oh man… probably should have passed laws to regulate data harvesting and digital privacy back in the 90s

Tell me again how tik tok is a Chinese spy network? When they can just BUY our information like this?
Probably they are all spy networks… Not to pee in your cereal or anything.
If everything is a spy network, then nothing is
Yeah this is a pretty dumb take. If all social media is stealing your info, then they are still all stealing your info. This is not “if everyone has superpowers nobody does,” it’s just a dipshit thing to say.
