The public, especially young adults, have social media as an integral part of their life. However, Joe Rogan has a different view. In various episodes of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, he showed his suspicions about TikTok.

Recently, Joe Rogan shared a post on his Instagram, sharing his worries regarding TikTok. Although some people stood against it, many others shared Rogan’s concern in the post’s comments.

Joe Rogan is skeptical of TikTok

While the youth are looking at TikTok as a source of entertainment and influence, Rogan sees TikTok as a sketchy application. On ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, he talked about the application with Jimmy Donaldson, popularly known as MrBeast. Rogan said, “TikTok is such a sketchy fu**king application.” 

Not only Joe Rogan, but various others have claimed the application is intrusive. In his podcast, Rogan showed some light on the fact that the software engineers who designed TikTok claimed it to be the most disturbing piece of software they had to engineer. Cross-platform spying is what made Rogan suspicious of the application. In fact, suggestions made by TikTok to follow a certain person just because of the closeness of the phones have raised questions in Rogan’s mind.
