"TikTok's new US joint venture has made changes to its privacy policy that include expanding the type of location data the company can collect from its 200 million American users.
The new policy was published after investors closed a deal with TikTok's Chinese owner ByteDance on Thursday to run the popular short-form video app's business in the US.
The new joint venture said in its updated privacy terms that it may now "collect precise location data, depending on your settings" - a change from the previous policy which allowed for the collection of "approximate" location data."
Everyone is getting Skylight instead. TikTok is literally blocking the ability to use the word Epstein and pretty much all leftist content, reports of this all over social media
Can't believe USA is becoming such a third world these days. What happened to tiktok is something that would normally happen in a banana Republic. It's so sad to see.
Indeed but also odd that quitters are citing "updated terms" for their exit but those terms mirror terms from 2024 -i.e. collecting the same information as before...
I think that means that they weren't paying much attention to the terms they now find unsavory.
