Trump to Rule on TikTok Deal

[DMX7]

The proposed deal doesn't even come close to meeting what Trump had demanded. How can he approve this?

-Oracle/Walmart only get a minority 20% stake
-The important algorithm stays in China and isn't transferred


A deal that keeps ByteDance as a majority stakeholder in TikTok’s U.S. operations will contradict Trump’s earlier pronouncements that the only remedy to a U.S. ban is a sale to a U.S.-based company. TikTok selected Oracle’s offer to be a “trusted technology partner” and a minority stake holder earlier this week over Microsoft’s offer, which had been in talks to acquire all of TikTok’s U.S. assets, as well as in Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

-They won't even let Trump skim money off the deal. :lol


Trump on Wednesday also backed off his desire to demand “key money” from allowing the transaction, saying his lawyers told him it was illegal.

“Amazingly I find that you’re not allowed to do that,” Trump said. “I said, ‘What kind of a thing is this?’ If they’re willing to make big payments to the government, they’re not allowed because there’s no way of doing that from a — there’s no legal path to do that.”

i say shut it down completely and all other chinese apps from here on out. fuck china!

Oracle CEO is a Trump MAGA donor, so expect Trump to flip on his tough China stance. All talk.

American companies selling me stuff is more legitimate than what could happen with TikTok. But then again, I don't even have a Facebook account because I don't trust Facebook with any of my info (personal data, pictures, private messages, etc.).

i beg to differ. i think most are well aware of bigTech's malfeasance. however, i also think most are too addicted to their dopamine hits of likes, comments, and more.

social media was and is the beginning of the end for any free nation.

:lmao NYT parroting deep state propaganda again :lol

Truth is whatever you are afraid of of tiktok and china is alreafy happening with US companies and US i telligence and deep state.

And if you think thats ok because its the US you are commiting a grave mistake. No government US or China should be doing this. Also remember US is doing it in Europe, Asia, etc.

The solution is A) there should be signed treaties that no government should do this (good luck getting US on the table for that) qnd B) governments and ppl need to fight back the corporations and hold them responsible for affecting ppls psyche.

[hater]

netflix is just as bad imo.

Possibly. But that doesnt mean you should boycott some of their great docum3ntaries.

[hater]

Oh and :lmao at americans thinking this decision is up to Trump :lmao :lol

The decision has already been taken by the deep state. Trump is just a puppet pretending its up to him

[koriwhat]

There is no "deep state" -- this is a conspiracy theory. :lol

Trump's donors will call the shot on this Tiktok deal therefore it will happen.

[DMC]

We cannot cut all ties with China. It would be nice if we could, but much of the economic growth over the past 30 years is directly tied to market growth in China an companies have blueprinted their forecasts on emerging markets in Asia.

tiktok is not the CCP. its a social media app.

the virus came from china, who did not act in the best interests of everybody else and put the world at risk. that part is not on trump

the US was also woefully underprepared and had a horrible response strategy to the virus which put hundreds of thousands of lives in jeopardy and has fucked our economy. that part is largely on trump

whether or not it was a "manmade virus" (no evidence to support that), yes we were absolutely unprepared. compare our response to south korea or germany. we didnt have ample testing for months on end, while our president was downplaying it as a flu and a hoax while in private knowing how dangerous it was. we now have a quarter of the world's covid deaths. that means many other places were better prepared and responded better than we did, whether it was manmade or not

i dont use tiktok so i dont care. but banning social media platforms is pretty authoritarian... we criticize authoritarians like china (:lol the irony) for banning facebook, youtube, etc

lol believing everything MSM tells you. i bet you still think the virus isn't transferred human-to-human... oh wait, maybe you believe the hospitals are over capacity... or better yet the shit sticks to surfaces for 17 days.

[koriwhat]

we should start banning our own social media platforms too... they aren't who they parade themselves to be. and you keeping up this cheerleading for tiktok while dismissing the overreach they had with the help of the ccp is down right ridiculous but go on you little commie.

We dont need to ban them outright.

Just ban the practice of data mining and manipulating the users to gain profit for them.

And everytime they make a dollar off someone that someone needs to know.

We also should not ban tiktok or whatever. Just have treaties and standards to prevent governments from using these apps from spying.
