India bans TikTok, dozens of other Chinese apps
The Indian government on Monday evening said it was banning 59 apps developed by Chinese firms over concerns that these apps were “engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, and security of state and public order” in what is the latest standoff between the two most populated nations in the world.
ByteDance’s TikTok, which counts India as its biggest market, Community and Video Call apps from Xiaomi, which is the top smartphone vendor in India, UC Browser, UC News, Shareit, CM Browser, Club Factory (India’s third-largest e-commerce firm), ES File Explorer are among the 59 apps that India’s Ministry of Electronics and IT have ordered to ban.

I think I’ve only seen one Indian video on TikTok. Their algorithm presents a very focused set of videos to a user.

R12, unless you're 22 or under, you're probably too old for TikTok as well.

Because most people over that age know a trap when they see one.
It’s the parents of the teens that use them are neglectful and abusive.
