TikTok monitors everything users type when using in-app browser
TikTok’s in-app browser injects JavaScript into external websites, allowing the app to monitor all input, including passwords and credit card numbers.
In 2020, it was discovered that TikTok had been accessing users’ clipboards. Now, TikTok has been found snooping on its users once again.According to security researcher Felix Krause, whenever users open a link in TikTok, the app is then allowed to monitor everything a user does on that external website. This includes anything typed, as well as taps on buttons and links.
