TikTok is tracking you, even if you don't use the app

11 hours ago

TikTok tracks user activity across the internet, even for non-users, through its 'pixel' tracking tool.
The TikTok pixel collects sensitive data, including health and personal information, from various websites.
TikTok's data collection practices have expanded, raising privacy concerns among experts and users.
Users can protect their privacy by switching to more private browsers like DuckDuckGo or Brave, or by using tracker-blocking extensions.
Despite protective measures, data sharing between companies and tech giants like TikTok, Google, and Meta remains a significant privacy challenge.
Experts advocate for stronger privacy laws to address the broader issues within the advertising technology ecosystem.
