The virus spread all over the world by China, named Coronavirus, which has caused havoc in India today. Everyone is facing some problem in the lock-down due to corona. People have demanded to boycott the Chinese app. One of which is TikTok which is once again engulfed in controversies. There has always been a hangaama about privacy with Tiktok. Something similar has happened this time too. The Chinese app TikTok was reading the clipboard of all iPhone users, although it did not need it. Recently Apple has released the beta version of iOS 14. After the iOS 14 update TikTok was reading all kinds of content copied to the iPhone. For example, if you have copied a message, then it was automatically being pasted in TikTok.

This is a kind of espionage, for the time being, TikTok has stopped reading the clipboard. If you copy anything in your phone, it is saved in the clipboard itself. TkTok read content copied by the iPhone consumer ever since iOS 14 was released. With iOS 14, Apple also released a security patch that exposed TicTalk's poll. Otherwise nobody could even get a clue about this.

Apple's security patch also has this feature that tells which apps included in the phone are reading the content of the clipboard. Apple has updated its new version on the app store, after which Ticktock is no longer reading the clipboard. Apart from Tiktok, apps like AccuWeather, Call of Duty Mobile and Google News are also reading the clipboard.
