stuart: i'm moving on to tiktok. personal information. grady trimble, what kind of information is tiktok collecting and why? >> stu, a shorter question to answer would be what type of data are they not collecting. of course, we know they're looking at your video preferences while you're browsing the app, but a new report from market watch says that they're siphoning data from more than half a million web sites, and they're covertly tracking wish lists in online stores for flower shops, fashion and clothing outlets and other sites. so they're not just collecting data while you're in the app, but also when you leave it to check out other sites. this is all part of tiktok's ambition to grow beyond a social media app known for dance trends and viral videos. the company is reportedly looking to expand the number of people who have made a purchase on the platform from around 24 million this year to nearly 38 million in just 3 years' time. basically, tiktok wants to be an e-commerce platform like amazon, andst it's already

but tiktok represents a specific risk. colleague of mine wrote a paper for cyber scoop talking about how it's not necessarily the data security challenges, it's that the chinese communist party may have the ability through the parent company of tiktok to suppress narratives, shift, lift, what we see on a daily basis. it doesn't have to be everything you see all the time, it can just be enough. just a little bit. and i think about what happens if -- if the chinese invade taiwan, what happens in the runup to the '24 election if they're not happy with some of the more -- the stronger stance that this administration is taking with china? there's significant amount of risk exposure we have here. >> and who owns twitter? who are his investors? i think that's normal for a government to ask. >> for elon musk, i know you know him. last question on this. russia watcher fiona hill said putin plays the egos of big men, gives them a sense they can play a role, but in reality they're just direct transmitters of messages from vladimir pu
