People will "give away" their data when there are no laws to stop "tech" company intermediaries^1 from collecting it.
Google, Facebook and others collect heaps of data. TikTok is hardly a special case.
1. Like Google and Facebook, TikTok does not author the "content" to which they provide access that serves as the "bait". They sit in between the author and the consumer and collect. The lesson I see here is that intermediaries need to be regulated.
