Good to know .. I have honestly kept away from most social media after a stint in Reddit that pushed me here

I have never had a Facebook, insta, Google whatever social, tiktok, etc so I don't really get what people like there

Currently, the government can request any data they want from TikTok and they are obligated to provided it.

You mean exactly like all big tech in the USA?

Which is in my opinion the actual goal here... The USA talks about free market and crap but usually cannot compete unless they make the rules, set the referees, start with double the money, can't go to jail and charge triple passing go

Either tiktok becomes an American company or leaves... Ah, the free market has spoken

I think it's a gamble... Too many people love tiktok (don't ask me why) that they know the pressure on the gov would be terrible

More importantly, a forced sale (with a time limit to boot) is bound to fetch them the worst deal ever

I think they are calling their bluff

And before anyone comes at me with some stupid fallacy, no I don't love the Chinese government or I'm trying to imply tiktok has nothing to hide and it's the source of rainbows and warm sweet buns

Fair.... But I still suggest you take it for a spin

I am saying how could she think it is a win for them.

Where does it say it's a "win" for Dems?... that is all in your head... it simply shows less carbon emissions, that's it, that's all

If you think this is the same as “no difference”, you are mistaken. I would vote for bad over worse, it makes a difference. But don’t be proud of it. Don’t post it as a win. Be ashamed. Do better. And at least, intend to stop.

Again, you are fighting demons in your head bud... I never even insinuated to be proud or celebrating... and honestly, neither did Hillary (as bad as she totally is) in her Xhitter message... simply implied Trump would be worse

Yeap, it's a completely different paradigm

If this is to be used by the IDF against Palestinians, they won't put in tear gas...

Publicly-traded companies are required (by law, I think) to maximize profits for their shareholders,

The is not true, stop spreading misinformation

They have been used in incredibly generic jobs like fast food restaurants

It's not about that.... It's about feeding the porks of the military industrial complex
