Is the TikTok craze getting worse?

On my FB feed there’s always an article about someone doing a Tik Tok during work, wondering why they got fired, or complaining about something. It seems it’s the go to for stuff like that. Yeah, it is.
 
Tik Tok is a cancer on modern society and I seriously can not wait for it to get banned,
 
I find Tik Tok has been a waste of time. Every time I've went on it and watched videos it always makes me feel like I'm always leaving with nothing gained. Like I didn't learn anything, nothing really was like ``Woah that was amazing``.
 
I don't use TikTok. Every now and then someone will send a video that's from TikTok, but I don't use it aside from that. There's just too many social media sites to keep up with these days and a good chunk of the content gets cycled through each one at some point.
 
yes.

I hate TikTok very much.
 
Same here!
...... ... and then you see this:

Justice Department says TikTok collected US user views on issues like abortion and gun control​

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a fresh broadside against one of the world’s most popular technology companies, the Justice Department is accusing TikTok of harnessing the capability to gather bulk information on users based on views on divisive social issues like gun control, abortion and religion.

Government lawyers wrote in documents filed late Friday to the federal appeals court in Washington that TikTok and its Beijing-based parent company ByteDance used an internal web-suite system called Lark to enable TikTok employees to speak directly with ByteDance engineers in China.

TikTok employees used Lark to send sensitive data about U.S. users, information that has wound up being stored on Chinese servers and accessible to ByteDance employees in China, federal officials said.
