Why TikTok Banned in India? - Fully Explained - TechTalk 01 - Down2u

So the tiktok users listen carefully. Tiktok is just taking some our personal informations like photos, videos, contact and emails, that's it. Now the question arise that with these informations, what can China or Tiktok company do, Right?

Even now there are many peoples in India who are sad after Tiktok got banned by the Indian Govt. They are thinking that why the hell govt banned Tiktok. So do you think the same? If yes, So this article is for you. I hope that after reading this article you'll get that what the actual reason behind banning the famous social media app Tiktok. So before I start read the word's by SEN. JOSH HAWLEY, The US Senator on Crime & Terrorism.

Tiktok is collecting a lot of data. I mean alot. In terms data it collects contact details, contents you create, and your location. It collects details from thrid party service network providers and technical and behavioral information about your use. It also collects in the information you send through a message to a tiktok user and information for your phone book, It's a lot of data!

Now you all will be thinking that how it's possible?? Well to understand this, you have to understand the term "Data Point".

What is Data Point?

Talking simply, So Data Point = Information or Facts. One data point means one information or one fact of that person/user. This mean that if you have 100 data points, so you have 100 information ie 100 facts of that person/user.

Now these informations of the users can be anything like when you sleep, when you wake up, when you eat food, when you use internet, when you use your phone, when you go out, at which which places you go, what you like, what you don't like, things you have allergy, things you hate most, all these things gets counted in these informations or facts. Means that every informations that you like is counted in data points or facts.

Now think friends that there's a company which has your 1000 data points. It means 1000 information or fact which almost not know to everyone. Now these informations of yours can be personal, it can be very much confidential also. Now all these things are know to a company. Means that company knows you better than you. Think how scary it is!!!

Means that company knows everything like what you like, what you don't, how much your bank balance is, whom you talk most, what's your account pin, what's your password. Now just think that you got an enemy and that enemy has got all these informations about you. So now think what can that enemy do to you...

Now in the same way just think about one country ( India = You, China = Enemy ). Now all those peoples who live this country, there all the data points ie the maximum data points
of the country got by an enemy country. So just think that how much disaster ( Attacking our country, Making our GDP low, etc ) the enemy country can cause to our country by using those data points/information.

Now listen friends, they can't do nothing with one or two data points. But you know that Tiktok has millions ( 300 Million ) of users in India. Now let's assume that the Chinese govt has the data of 200 million Indian users. Now you can simply think that how can the enemy country ie Chinese Govt can use these data against our country India.

So for now let's assume that if in future that there is going war between India & China. Now at this time the data points of our country users will play an vital role for the enemy country China to hurt us in any manner ( Economically, Physically etc ). Guys this was just the small example that I told you. I'm sure that you can't even imagine that at what level the data points stealing can destroy things.

So friends, What do think that why the Indian Govt has banned 59 Chinese Apps including the famous Tiktok, UC Browser, Likee, Helo, Share it etc. Friends there's a reason behind this. It's about country. It's about country's security purpose. Not any govt can ban any foreign apps in their country, there's a big reason behind this.

Not one nor two or three, but Tiktok company has caught red handed for data stealing several times. The data stealing is very big crime in CyberWorld. Tiktok and many other popular Chinese Apps copy your personal data like password, pins, pics, recordings etc without your permission. There are many popular apps in the world but they don't do so until and unless it's an Chinese App.

Now what you think is Chinese Govt is mad? No, they are genuinely very very smart. If you have every noticed that Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Google+, LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest are banned in China. Instead of all these apps, China uses it's alternatives. These alternatives are also developed by the Chinese Company only. So it's simple to understand that China don't want there user data to be stealed by any other countries. Think, How smart they are!!!

Now the question will arise that should we stop using Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp etc apps also? Listen friends, let me tell you that the word information privacy it's nothing but a myth! In a democratic country, the govt make some law's due to which anyone can't copy anyone's data without their permission. And yes, not any govt which has democracy, can't ask for users private information, this is totally illegal. But in case of China, everything is illegal. Chinese govt can ask for the data from the Information privacy companies any time.

In coming time, there's going to be so many Cyber Wars. By sitting in one country, one can destroy the other countries with the mean of just this Data ie Private Information ie Data Points ie Facts.

I think now you will come to understand that the ban of Tiktok and other Chinese Apps was how much important for India. If the country will get hurt, what will you do by making Tiktok videos???? Think about it.
