1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Is dojikat I think you know one or two points

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: having kiss that fam, that's where you are. Good morning.

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: I think the question here is this issue. I want

4
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,319
Speaker 1: to talk about this because everything is TikTok talk talk

5
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 1: talk talk talk talk talk, right, and we're going to

6
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: talk about TikTok. It's in the news, regulators talking about

7
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: shutting it down right because of it being possibly a

8
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 1: spy source for our data overseas exactly, So you can

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: break it down. Then I have a question about it.

10
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: But let's go. Well, I don't even know if I

11
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: have the answer for you, but yeah, it feels like

12
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: every day there's a new rumor about TikTok being banned

13
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: here in the US. But I think when it comes

14
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: down to it, banning TikTok isn't as simple as flipping

15
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: a switch and deleting the app from everyone's phone. It's

16
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: a major political decision that balances national security with freedom

17
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: of speech. Right. The big issue is what is the

18
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: relationship between TikTok and the Chinese government. So you have

19
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: the answer. The question that a lot of people have

20
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: is do they have users info? So if you ask TikTok,

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: the company is going to tell you that it has

22
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: not and would not give US user data to the

23
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: Chinese government. But TikTok is owned by byte Dance, a

24
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: company based in Beijing, China. So TikTok has been working

25
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 1: hard to convince everyone that it has protections in place

26
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: that wall off US user data from byte Dance and

27
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: by extension, the Chinese government. So they're saying, I mean,

28
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: not supposed to. We're supposed to just believe them like

29
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: at this point, right, And one academic study found that

30
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: TikTok does not have data collection practices that are more

31
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: of a threat than any other social media site, which

32
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: is not very comforting either itself. I know. So will

33
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: it get banned? That is the big question. And it

34
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: actually has been banned on government devices in some states

35
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: and some university's Wi Fi systems. That may tell you something.

36
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: What if it's banned on government devices, I mean, that

37
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: may tell you something. They know more than we know. Now. Listen,

38
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: here's the thing. So all your information from your phone

39
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: or your phone pots whatever, if that could be taken

40
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: and used by unapproved parties, would you be fine with that? Yeah, Disney,

41
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: I mean I don't have anything on my phone that's

42
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: like riveting, so you'd be fine. Could you live without TikTok?

43
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: What did they shut it down? Could you live without TikTok?

44
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: I think I could. Yes, I would like to. But

45
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: but why can you? Why can't another app be created? Exactly?

46
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: Why can't something with the same kind of software Instagram

47
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: social media? Hey, David Alvarez, don't you know much about

48
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: social media? And that your wheelhouse? Yeah, that's that's me

49
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: Just so couldn't another app do the same thing TikTok does? Yeah?

50
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: I mean Instagram's already doing it too, so they just

51
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: take over. They have it with right, so if it

52
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: goes away, it's your reels. Yeah right, I mean I'm

53
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: not sweat too, me too? Yeah, you're right? Are you sweating?

54
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: You got up every morning? Sweatness? No? No, I can.
