Yeah right? If people don't want viruses, just don't download them!

My point is that ordinary people don't know that TikTok could be even remotely bad for them, and when they do know, they will think that it is not that dangerous.

And Apple/Google dialogues about data transfer and all that will be dismissed by the user the second its pop-ups.

The user I am describing above is "the crowds". That's why TikTok is so massively used even though their security problems.

Isn't the onus on the user to assume risk? If they wish to have an accurate perspective then they have ever opportunity to do so. Sorry, if the contrary is true, and markets don't result in the best of all possible worlds then we have to conclude that free market capitalism is not going to work. The two are inexorably yoked together.
