History
TikTok no watermark downloader was originally developed by SnapTik.app in May 2020, and the feature is to remove the watermark online downloading the TikTok video, which solves the problem that many users cannot remove the watermark that comes after TikTok is released due to various reasons. In just 6 months, its website had 4 million monthly traffic. Then ssstik.io and other sites with the same feature came out and then added the feature of TikTok to MP3. Up to now, the mainstream TikTok Downloader is free to use and can be downloaded through the website or APP.
Technical Definition of Downloader
When TikTok downloader downloads, it will transfer the entire video or audio file to local storage for later use. Compared with streaming, the downloaded file data can be used immediately, and the transferred data will always be on the go. Of course, the data may not be stored long-term. TikTok downloader mainly provides downloads of short video media or video media sites that can be displayed in the browser, such as YouTube, TikTok, etc. More and more video media sites will increase the difficulty of restricting their users to save data such as video or audio to personal devices.It should be noted that downloading by the downloader does not belong to data communication; data movement or exchange between two devices is data communication, and data received from the Internet is a download.

Controversy
Copyright
Since the downloaded media files can be chosen whether to remove the watermark, which may involve copyright laws. Profitable behavior from the video may infringe the creator’s ownership and cause copyright disputes.
Because the open TikTok downloader allows users to download other people’s files to their own devices, there may be copyright risks for “file sharing” related technologies that are not authorized by the author. At present, there are no related reports that video creators have carried out copyright maintenance on them. However, YouTube has been sued over issues related to audio ripping sites. It can be seen from this that the future of TikTok downloaders still has a considerable degree of legal risk. Downloading from short video media is related to the widespread use of the Internet. In order to facilitate copyright protection. public static hosting of unauthorized copies of works such as videos is usually denied access quickly and without controversy. Therefore, it is gradually moving towards the use of dynamic network technology to avoid legal risks related to copyright.
