The author's opinion
The author uninstalled tiktok after 2 min of use. It is clear that he is not at all a fan of a application snaptchat style like Tiktok. But after researching the videos circulating in this application which targets a younger audience are mostly disturbing. We agree with Kanye West on theidea put more filters and controls there to protect the most vulnerable.
But making it a Christian application is two different things. The idea would interest more a Christian target audience but hardly those belonging to a non-Christian religion.
