TikTok might understand your own identity before you do.

There’s a lot of incredibly smart algorithms and an immense truckload of data behind each one of us on the platform. Should this be cause for concern from a platform that’s replacing search engines and news sites?

We dive into the opportunities and concerns with the platform on Disconnected, as well as how the anti-vax conversation has been driven to using secret emoji codes, whether Netflix is sacrificing binge watching to keep the platform alive, and more.

This episode of Disconnected covers:

• TikTok’s scarily impressive algorithm
• Whether TikTok is set to replace search engines and news sources
• The hidden translations of seemingly-innocent emojis
• Netflix’s complex relationship with binge watching
• Incredible mental health activism work by the likes of @talktococo
