Experts warn the TikTok algorithm is likely being manipulated to fit Chinese Communist Party's ambitions.
The families of a 9-year-old Wisconsin girl and an 8-year-old Texas girl have filed wrongful death lawsuits against TikTok, claiming their daughters died after participating in TikTok challenges.by lawmakers, experts and commentators for its data collection purposes. Another area of concern, though, is gaining increased traction: Whether the Chinese government is manipulating the TikTok algorithm in order to achieve its geopolitical goals in the United States.
Exactly how much control the Chinese government may have over the TikTok algorithm is impossible to know, but several examples point to at least some control, experts warned. "It knows what you want, and it also knows what you don’t want," he said. "And because of that, China has been using TikTok to propagate its narrative… TikTok is one of the items that the Communist Party uses to manipulate public opinion in the United States."
"To me, the biggest difference when it comes to the two apps and the algorithms is to just look at the type of content that goes viral," Flint said, pointing to trends like the Kia car theft challenge, which encouraged users to steal Kia or Hyundai cars, and thePolice are warning about a new challenge on TikTok teaching people how to steal Kia and Hyundai cars.
"TikTok has made a version for China that has specific intentions, and obviously that is dictated by the People's Republic. But in the United States, it can also be manipulated, and probably it is," he told Fox News Digital.
