Stick to the discussion regarding the TikTok app, its purchase and what it means for the app itself and any technology related impact this will have. Please do not shift discussion to which countries are spying on who or why, or any other such broader discussion independent of TikTok. While we all understand why the sale of TikTok happened, it is a topic that has become heavily politicised and this is first and foremost a forum for discussing technology, not politics.

Nah, judging someone based on if they use TikTok or not is beyond the definition of shallow.
