Yesterday, TikTok boss Shou Zi Chew appeared himself on a hearing that was held by the House! The congress representatives wanted to know how this social media company distanced itself from its parent company Bytedance that is fully controlled by CCP! However, Mr. Chew had not comforted our concerns in the hearing! He tried to avoid almost all major questions on national security and data privacy!
We must keep in mind for a fact that technically none of the companies in Communist China is private that means all companies in communist China can be controlled/manipulated by the CCP government if it wants to!
A lot of people do not know that almost all big companies in China have been forced to set up a small bureau/office of Communist Party by CCP in their companies and the purpose of the bureau is to monitor their management boards and to give a direct order to the the companies! The worst thing is that Chinese government uses these companies to influence the western world and to do its propaganda to our young kids that is a big risk of brainwashing!
The communist Chinese government (PRC) is not a free government like ours or like the democratic Taiwanese government(ROC). It has a very different [universal value] than us! They are a country its leader(ruler) has an absolute power over all people and all entities and such political power is above the law and everything! In China the ruler’s words are the laws! In such a dictatorial political system, TikTok will not be an exception in China!
Using TikTok means you give up your security and privacy! It also means you are supporting the Chinese government on human rights abuse, genocide to Uighur, suppression on freedom and democracy, suppression on freedom of speech, objection on law and order, irresponsibility and injustice! We can not invest our money and hope in such things!
Tolerance of crime and injustice is tantamount to complicity!
