    There’s giving data through API, and then there’s complete access to everything your device sees. It’s the difference between taking a trench and allowing your enemy to build a complete logistical hub behind your lines. It’s an order of magnitude worse.

      Have you looked at the permissions Meta requires to run an app on your phone these days?

      There is no difference. They’re taking everything.

          Neither is TikTok. Both of them are companies giving data to China. Why are you so invested in defending Meta?

            I’m not defending Meta. The level of access is an order of magnitude greater for China with TikTok. It’s not even comparable.
