I think what me meant was access to local network.

Sure, that could be worded better.

The correct answer is of course, no, if you are using 5G network instead of WiFi.

Yup, this^^

Some apps do track the other devices connected to the network.

Already got cases with canada's starbak



And whose to say a social media app won't go deeper.

Not impossible for the app to detect other devices in the same network… but typically will require permission to do it.

he meant if it can sniff other information from other devices on the local network, technically yes, not that difficult to implement. Does it do it or not requires further testing and monitoring.

By their logic, tiktok can access whole phone and whole network on router. If TikTok can do it, why not other app like FB or what ever app out there.

I saw one clip, the guy ask if TikTok uses the phone camera to measure the eye pupil dilation as a reaction of the video to suggest more similar video.
