Can’t have TikTok? RedNote looks like a nice replacement. Brilliant.
Should someone have raised the red flag when TikTok first came out? Seems to me it was mentioned that the app was Chinese owned. They walked in through the propped-open front door in the middle of the pandemic, when people were hungry for connection. There might have even been a neon Welcome sign. And now 170 million people here are exposed to Chinese snooping while the app doesn’t even exist, or is unavailable, in China.
Is RedNote any less invasive, or dangerous? Is there any less of a risk of personal information being compromised? Why are people falling over themselves to move to this new platform? Seems the cat’s out of the bag either way—whether TikTok survives or people flock to RedNote.
I must be missing something here.
