    Beware

    Very detailed article in the WSJ about the app TikTok, which is a Chinese owned social media platform---and somewhere you might want not to go--least you get a social disease

    I'm sure you can find more information on open sites.

    Did not know anything about it until Joe jumped my chops for linking to it. Deleted the post and have not been back.

    My son (the computer programmer whiz) tells me the word is that TikTok provides a pathway acknto it’s creators into your device’ catche(?), which stores short-term activity such as passwords and what not. What you are typing, they are glomming. The Chinese are lying, cheating, steeling scum, my friends.
