Is TikTok Putting Your Business at Risk?

The potential TikTok ban has businesses and individuals questioning the app's impact on privacy, national security, and the economy. ThrottleNet’s own George Rosenthal recently joined 97.1 Radio to dive into the potential effects of a ban on TiKTok.

Owned by Chinese company ByteDance, TikTok is under fire for its extensive data collection practices, fueling fears of access by the Chinese government. While alternatives like Red Note and Lemon8 gain popularity, they bring their own privacy concerns, leaving businesses and creators wondering: Are these platforms safe?

For small businesses and creators who depend on TikTok, a ban could spell financial uncertainty. With millions of users at stake, the question becomes: Is TikTok worth the risk, or is it time to move on to safer alternatives?
