"TikTok, one of the most downloaded apps of 2021 so far, decided to quietly update its privacy policy to collect biometric identifiers and biometric information know in the US as faceprints and voiceprints. The trendy app, owned by the Chinese internet technology company ByteDance, added a new section to its privacy policy called ‘Image and Audio Information.’
With the bold move, the Beijing-based company can now automatically collect those new types of biometric data. According to the updated privacy policy, the data will be used for non-personally-identifying operations such as enabling special video effects, content moderation, demographic classification, and ad recommendations.
Even though that TikTok’s privacy policy explicitly says that they do not sell personal information to third parties, they also leave the door open, saying that they can share business information, including faceprints and voiceprints, for business purposes. For an app that does not need this type of data to function, collecting such information might be seen as unjustified by many."

Some girl in the train is sitting in front of me and I can see her phone screen. I don’t really watch the details but it’s in my field of view so I can recognize what’s going on more or less.
In this one hour train ride she’s been probably writing 100’s of quick messages back and forth on instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, Snapchat and so on. Just flipping and switching from one app to another and from one person she’s chatting to another. In between she’s browsing feeds (looking at other people’s posts & pictures and videos) for a couple of seconds before messaging again.
FFS, what has this world come to. Kill me now.

- No pango, it was in my field of view. I was looking out of the window most of the time but I could still notice what was happening.NBQ00
- Alright. In that case , you should ask the girl to apologize for ruining your day.pango

A number of people tweeting this week that Twitter isn’t just “the town square” but is actually “the whole world.”
Quick estimate: 90 to 97% of people on earth DON’T have a twitter account.
Let’s be glad most of the world doesn’t have a twitter handle

Trump’s new social media site collapses after trolls flood it before launch.
Trolls posting poop on pigs' balls helped bring down his new free speech site within hours of debut.

I am dying to know the name of Trump's social media platform.
Sadly, they'll probably use something boring like Freedom Net and not something cool like MAGAVERSE
