Tracking code created by TikTok's parent company ByteDance Ltd. has been discovered in 30 state government websites, Feroot Security says, the WSJ reported.
Wall Street Journal: “A review of the websites of more than 3,500 companies, organizations and government entities by the Toronto-based company Feroot Security found that so-called tracking pixels from the TikTok parent company were present in 30 U.S. state-government websites across 27 states, including some where the app has been banned from state networks and devices.”
TikTok can mine data even if they have never used the social media app before, claims a new report released by the cybersecurity company Feroot Security.
