As a security professional, not much scares me. I've seen my personal data stolen numerous times, watched nationstate hackers spray zerodays across the internet, and I'm a shameless user of TikTok. But now you have someone sitting on top of the personal data of several billion users, someone who has a long track record of vindictive harassment, someone who has the ear of the far right, and someone who has just shown us his willingness to weaponize internal company data to score political points. That scares me a lot.

I also like to dip into TikTok once in a while. For me, it’s mindless fun. Not unlike any other social media actually. And I too don’t really get the overwhelming fears about China and TikTok while at the same time a South African, apartheid fascist is in charge of Twitter? This from the “liberal” media…yuck…
