      once the data gets sent to a Chinese server, it’s gone. It’s like a void.

      This sounds insanely xenophobic and racist.

      Those “data collections analysis” can speculate, but they truly have no idea what happens with that data.

      The one doing speculation is you. Analysis is not speculation. Maybe check a dictionary.

      it’s demonstrable wrong to say that they collect less data.

      I wouldn’t say

      Facts or feelings. Choose one. You have not yet chosen facts.

        I may not be into Ben Shapiro as much as you, so I reject that premise. You can argue things with facts and feelings, I’d even go so far to say that that’s very important to do. Otherwise we’d lose track of what matters.

        I could be wrong, but do those analysts have unfettered access to TikTok’s servers? Because I don’t think they do. You can track what goes out, but you can’t track what they keep.

        This sounds insanely xenophobic and racist.

        This sounds xenophobic? Not exactly a “factual” argument. But no, it’s obviously not. I was referring to how China doesn’t let other countries so much as peek at their servers. This is well known, and has nothing to do with race or culture, but with the CCP and its antics.
