In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like “headphone status” and “screen density.”

    People here complaining about Threads and TikTok (Chinese owned) being the defacto social network for an entire generation over there without outrage, and when it’s outrage about it people just say “at least is not the US” what kind of defense is that?

      I usually don’t like these types of comments but here we go: Because in TikTok america bad memes are really popular. And TikTok is owned by the Chinese. What a coincidence.I don’t understand how TikTok is being defended here, its basically propaganda.Wasn’t there a case of like a huuge amount of videos critizising the chinese goverment removed?

        Post complaining about Meta collecting too much data from its users but Tiktok which has much more users than Threads and almost the same as FB doesnt get the same amount of complains, and when it does people shrugged off saying “at least is not owned by an US company” implying some would rather give their data to a chinese company.
