For those who have been holding out, it has been reported in two articles now that TikTok can now track your keystrokes.
In a recent article from Komando.com called Here’s another reason to ditch TikTok: It can record what you type, it talks about what the Chinese company is doing as a researcher tested several apps including Facebook and Messenger.
Some track your activity, but TikTok can track what you type, especially after you tap or doubletap on links within its app.
While other apps allow you to open it within the browser, TikTok does not.
Read the article and make your decision. They claim its for debugging purposes, but the researcher doesn’t think so. This, he says, is deliberate.
You be the judge.
I’ve got more blogging I’d like to do, but it will be later on until I can get there. If I don’t blog more today, there will be plenty that might be coming tomorrow. This is a huge story about TikTok, so it won’t surprise me if I don’t schedule things till tomorrow.
Make it a great day. If you stay on TikTok, just be aware of what is happening.
