No end-to-end encryption (E2EE) for TikTok

[britporn_mike]

"TikTok will not introduce end-to-end encryption (E2EE) - the controversial privacy feature used by nearly all its rivals - arguing it makes users less safe.

E2EE means only the sender and recipient of a direct message can view its contents, making it the most secure form of communication available to the general public.

Platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and X have embraced it because they say their priority is maximising user privacy.

But critics have said E2EE makes it harder to stop harmful content spreading online, because it means tech firms and law enforcement have no way of viewing any material sent in direct messages."

Backdoors are quite common on websites some just stand up against this others cave in give it to law enforcement.
