You’d think. And frankly, my hope is that this wave of scrutiny for TikTok catches up with the rest of the tech industry. Commodification and collection of user data, including data of people who themselves are unwitting to their data being collected and furnished by proxy (i.e. your friend makes an agreement that allows your number to be documented off of their contacts list), should be illegal.
The lack of regulation for the billion $ data brokerage market is baffling and a gross violation of our collective basic right to privacy. | [

It’s not even close! Here’s a summary from a white paper regarding the massive security risk that is TikTok:
“At Penetrum, we strive to provide the most detailed, transparent, and accurate security analysis and audits that are within our ability. We also strive to develop the most ambitious, yet practical cybersecurity tools and use them in the field. After extensive research, we have found that not only is TikTok a massive security flaw waiting to happen, but the ties that they have to Chinese parties and Chinese ISP’s make it a very vulnerable source of data that still has more to be investigated. Data harvesting, tracking, fingerprinting, and user information occurs throughout the entire application. As a US company, we feel that it is our responsibility to raise awareness of this extensive data harvesting to TikTok’s 1 billion users.” | [

Is this more than what FB does, or are they not a security risk because they are subject to our laws? Also, we welcomed almost the entire browsing world to this shit (Chrome variant users) with manifest v3 as of New Years, so Im sure China and every other nation that spies, and all the data miners and fingerprinters are going to just love that. | [

Because US politicians don't care or understand what the technology is. It's easy for them to point at TikTok being a national defense issue (it is) because it's connected to the China, but they'll use that same national defense argument to justify NSA spying. And most Americans with voting power are either don't know their privacy is at risk, are tech illiterate, or just don't care about constantly giving out their data and say "well I've got nothing to hide" like it's a sign of honor. | [

Why all the hate for tik tok?
I'll take this one at a time.
Every app does the same thing,
You ain't necessarily wrong in that case, but TikTok has turned it into an art form.
because it’s China it’s bad I guess?
Foreign and hostile government spying on US citizens and logging all of their data is bad.
Sounds like xenophobia.
Nah, not really. It's because they're not a friendly country.
Facebook and Amazon sell info to the government all the time.
To the US government. Biggest of big differences. If Facebook and Amazon were nakedly selling data to the Chinese government? That's a different story.
And also...
why not do that too? Let's just have this be a starting point to regulate this shit. | [

There is other types of data that an app running on your phone can potentially gather.
Besides objects in your surroundings (like say the nuclear reactor at UT) there is also information about the network you are on and potentially the devices connected to it. There is also a lot of meta-data that can be pulled. Its almost less about you and more of using you as an unwilling spy via compromised cell phone. | [

This is the right decision. The death penalty should be abolished. Ignoring the whole moral argument around state sponsored killings of guilty people, we know for a fact that innocent people are killed by the death penalty. The death penalty doesn't prevent crime and it doesn't reverse crimes or suffering that already occured. All it does is ensure innocent people will be executed while awful people continue to do awful things undeterred.

I know about the innocent people killed.

Multiple eye witnesses,
Caught in the act by multiple people,
Murder weapon in hand, covered in victims blood,
Caught on clear, crisp video.
NO doubt. None.

I hate to break it to you but eye witnesses are unreliable. Emergencies happen fast and no one knows how they'll react until they're in one.
Example: a couple months ago I fell down the stairs and landed flat on my back at the bottom but even I myself can't be certain if I rolled once or twice on my down.
The world isn't black and white and the risk of innocents being executed should be enough to abolish the death penalty. | [

Death penalty for and against debate will never end.
An alternative to death penalty to mass murderer caught red handed. Life time imprisonment and enhanced punishment of not allowed to intermingle with other prisoners, locked in solitary 23 hours a day, one hour to exercise alone, no TV, no amenity except essentials. Basically same treatment given to the worse offenders locked up at Super Max State Prison.
It can become quite a pain if you lose social contact and that is the point. It is meant as punishment. | [

Emergencies happen fast and no one knows how they'll react until they're in one.\nExample: a couple months ago I fell down the stairs and landed flat on my back at the bottom but even I myself can't be certain if I rolled once or twice on my down.\nThe world isn't black and white and the risk of innocents being executed should be enough to abolish the death penalty.",
">\n\nOk, so you're saying he didn't do it?",
">\n\nYou are either arguing in flagrant bad faith or have literally zero intellectual capacity to understand basic rhetoric.",
">\n\nBut we're talking about this guy, right? Who's the article about? You might be talking about \"basic rhetoric\", but the article and the conversation, my conversation, is about this one guy in the article. Right?",
">\n\nPhantom Zone it is! Guilty!",
">\n\nThese dudes always look the same.",
">\n\nSpending his entire life in a cage with no hope of release is not a bad idea.",
">\n\nThat's good, capital punishment is barbaric, it doesn't deter anyone, and costs more due to the lengthy automatic appeals process than LWOP costs.",
">\n\nit does deter people. this is common sense and supported by evidence.\nif you could kill someone and:\n- get no punishment\n- get mild punishment\n- get severe punishment\n\nobviously the harsher the punishment, the less people will commit the crime.",
">\n\nAt a certain level of punishment it doesn’t make any difference, the really frothing murderers don’t care about 20 years or 50 or death.",
">\n\nI hope there's a civil suit to make sure he doesn't see a penny from any fundraising and donations. \nSad that everyone knows he'd have donations from racists among us.",
">\n\nHe did this and for what? He accomplished nothing. He furthered none of his goals. Whatever his aims were, this did not further them. And people are dead. Others are wounded. Many more are scarred. And himself, he will never know another day of freedom. What a stupid price to pay for anger.\nEdit. No. Hate. A price to pay for hate.",
">\n\nOn top of what you said, he stated he did it because of the \"latino invasion of Texas\". I wonder how he's going to feel when he learns the white man stole Texas and the surrounding states from Mexico. He'll probably be sitting in jail when he learns this.\nSMH sheesh!",
">\n\nPut him in General Population. Never segregated, he needs to...ah.....learn to get along with others.. \nYeah... that's what he needs. An education.",
">\n\nDeath penalty for and against debate will never end.\nAn alternative to death penalty to mass murderer caught red handed. Life time imprisonment and enhanced punishment of not allowed to intermingle with other prisoners, locked in solitary 23 hours a day, one hour to exercise alone, no TV, no amenity except essentials. Basically same treatment given to the worse offenders locked up at Super Max State Prison.\nIt can become quite a pain if you lose social contact and that is the point. It is meant as punishment.",
">\n\nThat would never stand up because it would be considered cruel or unusual punishment.",
">\n\nCruel and unusual punishment? Say that to the surviving members of victims since you don't seem to care about them.",
">\n\nI care about them, it's still a cruel and unusual punishment lol...",
">\n\nHe's the wrong skin color to get the death penalty, isn't he?\nfor the record, I'm opposed to it in all cases; just trying to call out the possible hypocrisy.",
">\n\nThis is the federal government, he still has to contend with the state. And the state is Texas, so...",
">\n\nEven if there are some merits to the death penalty, I say this country has forfeited any kind of moral standing there because the death penalty has been used disproportionately against minorities. We’ve screwed it up enough.",
">\n\nThe death penalty is bad because the country has used it to disproportionately kill minorities. That is why now that we have this white guy that is charged with specifically targeting and killing minorities we shouldn't give him the death penalty.",
">\n\nIt's cheaper to just let another prisoner kill him.",
">\n\nGot a backhoe and a 9mm cartridge? We can save a WHOLE lot of money real quick",
">\n\nTax payers will now have to pay to feed him, provide shelter, medical expenses......",
">\n\nWhich is still MUCH less than the cost of the appeals process for someone sentenced to the death penalty.",
">\n\nI can only think of one reason why not. \"General Pop Justice\" for life is worse.",
">\n\nThat's bs. Put him on death row. 20 years of waiting to die drives anyone insane then put him in the dirt",
">\n\nGood. Abolish the death penalty.",
">\n\nI wonder what the victims families want. That's important.",
">\n\nTexas kills (with capital punishment) more perps than any other U.S. State. DOJ will pass that chip.",
">\n\nThe cost for a death row inmate are twice as high. I think spending your life in jail really isn't great",
">\n\nThis is a good thing to see in a civilised (and financially responsible) society, it's just soured by all the people that they'll go on to seek death for afterwards.",
">\n\nThis waste of space had better get the death penalty. There is a spot right in hell waiting just for this fucker.",
">\n\nI'm surprised the DOJ is even prosecuting the case. I'm not convinced they do anything after the last few years. Merrick Garland could have been asleep since the day after his appointment, and exactly as many cases would have been closed. There are no rules anymore unless you're poor",
">\n\nHope this rotten sack of shit gets the Dahmer treatment in prison.",
">\n\nI hope he gets the death penalty on day, and I realllllly hope that it doesn't get botched and dies a painful death, that would suck."
