      If you’re located anywhere outside China it just says the country you’re in, not the city, and even for Chinese people it only shows the city they’re in if they’re located in a major one like Beijing or Shanghai (for a lot of people it just shows the province.) Idk to me it’s not a big deal if Xiaohongshu knows I’m in the Great Satan.

      A lot of the TikTok people are moving with the assumption that their privacy and data are cooked regardless of platform, and are choosing to spite America/us corps. Not the average hexbear poster

        I just assume that if I need to get a non-Christian abortion or not be racist, facebook already has an automated firehose for snitching my location and degree of thoughtcrime straight to the Schutzstaffel dispatch, merely waiting for President Musk to activate the autobot matrix of fascism, Chinese companies probably at least have a few hours delay due multilayered pipelines between shell corporations to bypass santactions.
