Letters to the Editor

For years, the FBI was warned us of the dangers of using the Chinese APP known as, Tiktok. TikTok has allowed the Chinese to enter our lives through a back door. They have been collecting data on Americans that they store to be used against us at any time.TikTok is owned by a Chinese company, ByteDance located in Beijing China. The Chinese designed the APP to influence users or to control their devices. The generation under 30 years old has been greatly attracted to TikTok and have used it for research,entertainment and news.TikTok is part of the Chinese extraterritorial control over Digital platforms.Chinese firms have actually been engaged in national security audits of any data that's being gathered by a Chinese firm. They are after our freedoms this way. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida introduced a bipartisan bill on December 13, 2022 that would ban TikTok in the United States. Aynne Kokas a professor of media studies at the University of Virginia and Director of East Asia studies, has written a book now published to warn us of the TikTok threat in our lives as Americans. Her book is entitled," Trafficking: Data How China is winning the war for Digital Sovereignty." An excellent read that will open your eyes wide open. Research Senator Marco Rubio's bill against TikTok and support any effort to keep China out of our lives.
