Understand although what’s so controversial about the information in TikTok? Maybe look at things like alibaba, wish, or even our energy suppliers. Pretty sure that information is more important given you provide PII. As soon as I bought something from wish.com they also on sold my info to scammer dbs - how do I know? I misspelt my name on purpose and that’s what they were referring to me as.

To my understanding, they get access to your whole phone, including messages not sent on Tiktok
