My first thought was "drowning?" but was immediately followed by "I'm not surprised".
Almost lost one of my friends when he difficultly fighting against the current trying to get out of an underwater cave.

I like spelunking and caving, etc. But not like that. Ugh, makes me nervous just watching it.

Are you sure that's what you meant to write?
Nobody should be at all surprised that China based TikTok has a keylogger. Hell, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Twitter, WhatsApp, iMessage, Chrome, Edge and Safari all had keyloggers. Privacy and the internet do not go together.

Has nothing to do with China.
I get mails from my hospital to my gmail, with a sig that yammers about being the intended recipient and about privacy. Multiple companies do. None ever answered my legal questions on the validity of that signature for a mail-account where you sign and agree to share your data.
The sig is worth nothing.

If they are sending sensitive medical Information via e-mail, they deserve to be prosecuted. In Israel, the only remotely medical information that is sent by e-mail are reminders of appointments, and a notification that a doctor has processed your online request (no details). If I want any medical information, I must login to a secure site.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

this all falls under the bullshit "you agree to our terms and conditions..." etc. The last few times I've been at the doc (USA) they hand me a tablet. Then I find out the office has subcontracted to a company to manage this that is data farming the info I put in.

Just appointments. And I can't, since I signed up for it.
So, being in Israel is like being in Europe. Same damn rules.
Also, yes, appointments is a problem.

um yes, but I don't do tiktok. I guess the part that made me choke was "we don't use it".

Take it for what it's worth. This is hearsay from a colleague that lived in Chicago back then...
Back in early 2000's or so Chicago started taking photos at intersections with lights to ticket traffic violations. When the plan was announced a hue and cry went up that the data could be used to track people even if there were no traffic violations. The city announced they wouldn't ever use the data for that purpose. Within 2 years it was the most subpoenaed information in criminal and civil (especially divorce) cases.
He also stated that ATM machines at some point started having 2 cameras; one to image the person at the ATM and one looking past them (ostensibly to get an image of a robber). The latter camera data was also included in subpoenas to track a person's location.
I don't personally know if any of this is true but it doesn't fall too far outside the realm of possibility. Wait - is that a black helicopter over there?

Not quite everyone knows him, but he was Stanley Kubrick's right hand for several decades, carrying a huge workload. A fantastic documentary speaks of his work: Filmworker (2017) - IMDb[^] and is recommended for all who are into Kubrick. (And I rarely use "fantastic")
