TikTokers are coping with the apps potential ban with an unusual trend: by bidding farewell to their personal Chinese spy. The trend, which pokes fun at security concerns surrounding the app, has users thanking their spy for surveilling them and filling their For You page with entertaining content, while others proclaim that theyd rather share their data directly with the Chinese government than switch to Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts.One post, which garnered more than 1.5 million likes, depicts an emotional scene from Squid Game with the caption, Me saying goodbye to my Chinese spy on the 19th (He perfected my algorithm). Other TikTokers are speaking and singing in Chinese, while some pretend to be the spies powering individual algorithms.It is a great honor to spy on you for the last few years, TikToker yanxiao1003 says in a video. I wish you all have a great life in the future... Laura from California, you shouldnt drink that much Coca-Cola, its bad for your health.RelatedFor years, TikTok has faced scrutiny over the ties of its parent company, ByteDance, to China, with lawmakers calling it a national security threat and accusing the app of sending US user data to China. But now the platforms ban is imminent, with the Supreme Court set to hand down a decision on whether to uphold the law that would either ban TikTok or force ByteDance to divest it by January 19th.
