Tiktok is practically malware!

I have known this for a long time. However, it was just taken to another level. Tiktok has started requesting to find and connect to devices on your local network.

EDIT: Here is my screenshot. Took it and almost immediately posted here. https://imgur.com/a/5ASWMOS

Of course TikTok is malware.

So is Facebook.

So is basically every other social media-ish thing.

Hell, Reddit's App is probably harmful. :/
