I don’t use TikTok. I do however see a lack of leverage a government on the other side of the world would have over me. If the US gave a shit about data security then they wouldn’t allow all its domestically sold cars to have all that user telemetry in the first place.
It’s being pragmatic. I don’t want any data to be transmitted to any server just as much you I assume. If that’s not gonna happen then at least China won’t be likely to share what it has with the US government and would have a smaller influence over my life compared to what the US would do.
I honestly don’t think it will matter much. I don’t think BYD, Huawei, Samsung, Kia, Honda, BMW, Motorola, or PayPal are collecting all this info about us so they can just sit on it. Now the countries those companies are based in might have some slightly different standards, but a lot of them share that data, too.
The real solution is to get decent consumer privacy laws, and I’m not sure how to get there.
Get yourself a Chinese car to escape 14Eyes and embrace the CCPyware
It’s better than having your data in American servers where they can do the most damage.
Thank goodness data collection companies would never sell or share data with each other
Are you suggesting it’s better on Chinese servers? Guessing someone likes TikTok a little more than they like global stability

You’re thinking pretty small if you can’t imagine how it’s bad for a foreign government to surveil a population.
