Reddit's CEO explosively described TikTok as 'parasitic' and 'spyware'
The CEO of Reddit slammed TikTok, the short-form-video app that has taken Generation Z by storm, at an event on Wednesday.
"Maybe I'm going to regret this, but I can't even get to that level of thinking with them," Huffman said."Because I look at that app as so fundamentally parasitic, that it's always listening, the fingerprinting technology they use is truly terrifying, and I could not bring myself to install an app like that on my phone."TikTok was not immediately available for comment on Huffman's remarks.
A California student filed a class-action lawsuit against the company last year, alleging that the app made an account for her without her permission and started collecting her data.
