TikTok reportedly breached

TikTok, the short-video sensation that’s among the world’s most downloaded apps, is coming under increased scrutiny about its data security as it guards the personal information of over a billion users.

On Monday, several cybersecurity analysts tweeted about the discovery of what was purportedly a breach of an insecure server that allowed access to TikTok’s storage, which they believe contained personal user data.

personal information of over a billion users

Their emails? The whole thing is public anyway, not sure what is there to hack when the users already leak themselves.

Just phoned my grandmother. She said it's not a big concern. Doesn't mind if people see more than just twerking.
