The conversation around user data and how it’s collected and shared is louder than ever, and it’s now butting heads with one of the world’s most popular social media platforms.

TikTok, a Chinese-based app allowing users to share short videos of themselves dancing, performing skits, commenting on others’ videos and much more, is under fire from large countries like our own United States government and India, which have expressed a desire to fight or, in some cases, ban usage of Chinese-based applications.

The fear stems from a supposed fear that sensitive American user data is being shared with the Chinese government.

On this Business Casual snippet, hosts Daniel Litwin and Tyler Kern discuss how much data sharing goes on behind the scenes of all our favorite apps, apps that are rising up and ready to fill the void should TikTok be pulled from U.S. users, including some created by industry heavy-hitters, and more.

Atlona's Omega 2 puts 4K video, USB and Ethernet on one Cat 6A cable

Atlona's Omega 2 puts 4K video, USB and Ethernet on one Cat 6A cable

TWICE reports that Atlona added Omega 2 to its Omega Series on Oct. 22, 2026. According to Atlona, the HDBaseT 3.0 lineup carries uncompressed 4K/60 4:4:4 video, USB 2.0 data and Gigabit Ethernet over a single Cat 6A cable at distances up to 330 feet. The company says presenters get one cable and integrators get fewer boxes behind the display.

  • 01Omega products shown in 2019 were rated for up to 330 feet. Atlona says Omega 2, which uses HDBaseT 3.0, moves uncompressed 4K/60 4:4:4 video plus USB 2.0 data and Gigabit Ethernet across a single Cat 6A cable for distances up to 330 feet.
  • 02On the AT-OME2-E2311 transmitter and AT-OME2-D2311 receiver, bi-directional Power over HDBaseT lets either end power the other, so the link runs on one power supply, according to TWICE. That could mean one fewer power supply to mount behind a display.
  • 03Two models, the AT-OME2-E2311 transmitter and the AT-OME2-D2311 receiver, are already available. Atlona expects the AT-OME2-E2321-WP wall plate and the AT-OME2-R2742 switcher to begin shipping in mid-November.
