Not sure how Weibo found its way into my phone, I do not have it installed, and this is very concerning… is there a way to block it?

you could’ve opened weibo on safari and that counts into the screen time, or a program is running weibo constantly

That’s possible, just sus that it ran for 21+ hrs… and idk why it showed as Weibo instead of the browser it was opened on?

TikTok feeds your data to data brokers

I don’t use google and I know Reddit does but it doesn’t run in the background skimming your phone like TikTok does

TikTok doesn’t have rights to install other software. This is a dumb take
