since people are yelling about it.
It's probably not blatantly bypassing security and privacy features, what it is PROBABLY doing is using the user to bypass them by simply manipulating them to do it.
Social engineering is way easier than whatever bullshit you would need to do to bypass sandboxing and dynamically recompile, or whatever people are claiming, and my guess would be that this is what they're doing.
If the suit is claiming they are doing what i said, that's probably legal, and not going anywhere, unless tiktok ban bill 2.0. If the suit is claiming what others are claiming, it's still probably wrong and probably going to be tiktok ban bill 2.0.
Unfortunately these things aren't all that exciting at the end of the day.
