Social media is all around us and is an integral part of the society that we live in. We see people from all walks of life spending time on social media, and one platform has become increasingly popular this year: TikTok.

In September 2021, the platform had over 1 billion monthly active users, and it is still growing.

A few years ago, then President Donald Trump told Americans to be careful about using the social media platform TikTok, explaining that this posed a serious security risk to the individual. The media widely ignored that, but more are starting to speak out and express their concern about the social media giant.
