The new feature \u2013 called paste notifications \u2013 shows that TikTok is inspecting the clipboard with each new keystroke, and it\u2019s possible that they\u2019re also grabbing the contents and storing it for later to be sent off with the other information that TikTok phones home with. This discovery was tweeted by Jeremy Burge and is demonstrated in a video below:<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/jeremyburge\/status\/1275896482433040386<\/p>\n<p>Editor\u2019s note: According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/technology\/2020\/06\/25\/tiktok-stop-snooping-users-clipboards-iphone-update-shows-app\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Telegraph<\/a>, TikTok has stated they will stop reading the contents of the clipboard now that they have been caught.<\/p>\n<h2>TikTok stores all kinds of information and sends it back to China<\/h2>\n<p>A Reddit user, <a href=\"https:\/\/old.reddit.com\/r\/videos\/comments\/fxgi06\/not_new_news_but_tbh_if_you_have_tiktiok_just_get\/fmuko1m\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bangorlol<\/a>, posted to the Videos subreddit with a breakdown of what information TikTok takes from users and sends back to China. They found that TikTok used pretty much all the data collection ability available to mobile app developers. Information gathered by TikTok and sent home include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cPhone hardware (cpu type, number of course, hardware ids, screen dimensions, dpi, memory usage, disk space, etc)\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cOther apps you have installed (I\u2019ve even seen some I\u2019ve deleted show up in their analytics payload \u2013 maybe using as cached value?)\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cEverything network-related (ip, local ip, router mac, your mac, wifi access point name)\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cWhether or not you\u2019re rooted\/jailbroken\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSome variants of the app had GPS pinging enabled at the time, roughly once every 30 seconds \u2013 this is enabled by default if you ever location-tag a post IIRC\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThey set up a local proxy server on your device for \u201ctranscoding media\u201d, but that can be abused very easily as it has zero authentication\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Many established cybersecurity firms have also done this teardown and found similar alarming privacy concerns. One such company, <a href=\"http:\/\/penetrum.com\/research\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Penetrum<\/a>, included this note in their latest static report of TikTok version 1.8.0:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe app copies data to clipboard. Sensitive data should not be copied to clipboard as other applications can access it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>With iOS 14, this behavior is now front and center for TikTok users \u2013 and they absolutely should be concerned.<\/p>\n<h2>The clipboard as a privacy attack vector<\/h2>\n<p>The contents of your clipboard can be very sensitive. With the proliferation of password managers, which create the pattern of copying and pasting passwords, this raises the concern that TikTok is storing your passwords for other apps and websites and sending it back to China. Of course, it isn\u2019t possible to know exactly what TikTok is doing with the clipboard contents. It could just be checking for certain types of links to increase functionality for users; however, TikTok doesn\u2019t have the best track record so it\u2019s understandable why experts around the world are wary of this behavior.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to remember that besides what you copy for pasting, anything you enter into an app or website can be viewed.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/jeremyburge\/status\/1276148256263847936<\/p>\n<p>Even when entering \u2013 or copying and pasting \u2013 a password into an app or website, it\u2019s entirely possible for that information to be stored somewhere and you have to trust the service that you\u2019re using to have proper security measures in place for that. It\u2019s bad enough that an app can potentially be storing and sending off the contents of your clipboard, but if they\u2019re doing so in an unsecured manner \u2013 others could get access to that sensitive clipboard information, too. The TikTok app hasn\u2019t been known as a privacy respecting app, and this latest update should really raise some eyebrows even from the average user.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new privacy feature in iOS 14 has revealed that TikTok is copying the contents of your clipboard with every keystroke.
