The China-centric video sharing platform is expanding with a new international app and an English version of its website -- with no identity verification (for now at least)

I would prefer it if it wasn't Chinese because I don't really trust Chinese companies, but then again I didn't really trust Google and YouTube super duper needs competition.

I don't trust Chinese either, but I trust the US and the 5 eyes mob even less. Chinese for me is on the "not as bad as the US, UK and AUS" list. The reason being that I could not care less what the Chinese platforms gather on me with what little they can gather (which is not much due to how I use the internet as a whole), but the US, due to the relationship they have with me and with my country can actually do some damage.
