Communion Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Feels like a brazen dishonesty to the American people to claim it is a security concern when the real goal is just to give said profits to a US company who'll listen to the US government in what videos go on people's feeds. One could say it's Biden attempting to rih the election if the US can then control the algorithm 1 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right-wing Dems joined on if they bumped it to 12 months (ironically to delay the controversy to after the election).

GhostBox Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) Nothing will happen for over a year. By the time that comes TikTok might not even matter. 💀 Realistically when that times comes they will sell it and TikTok will be here to stay to die away like all those before it.

Both Sides Now Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) ByteDance recorded revenue of $120 billion in 2023. The US accounted for $16B of that (13.3%). While the loss of American creators won't be good for the app, I really don't think they're going to be pushed into selling up. This is just going to piss off American citizens. Get your VPNs ladies.

The amount of talented artists people have found and supported and given a platform to is astounding. It felt good not having to wonder about the next biggest untalented industry plant TikTok has changed the world and opened the minds of millions of people. I hate to see this app go. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
