I hate Tik Tok and also hate copyright disputes but can't help but smile when these big corporations have arguments over money and people start taking sides, like Tik Tok or Universal cares about any of their customers.
I’m on side “Let them fight”.
Let them cook each other
Let them almost kill each other, then whoever is dragging themselves away from the fight go over and American History X their entire business.
I can dream....
that's how i am when the big media companies and the cable/satellite companies fight over fees and retransmission rights.
Why would having a personal interest or maybe a legal opinion rely at all on whether the companies care for you?
Who said you can't have an opinion? You can write a paper on the case for all I care just don't pretend corporations are our friends, or god forbid feel sorry for Tik Tok.
The top level comment said it was ridiculous that anyone would take a side. So while they didn't say you couldn't have any opinion, but that you were ridiculous for having one.
The top comment is about fanboyism, not about ridiculing people for having an opinion.
Then they should make it more clear, because that certainly is not clear from what they said.
