    1. Creating a problem so you can take credit for coming up with the solution – by Donald Trump’s ghostwriter

      Now everyone who is constantly crying about China’s influence can use what will be a far-right controlled TikTok.

      Enjoy!

      Id like to know whoever exactly is in this ‚investor group‘.
      It would be nice to see who is poised to bemifit from this.

    4. Never thought I’d be less comfortable with the Americans having my data than I am with China having it, but here we are.

    5. Social media (and mainstream media) is being taken over by the far-right at an alarming rate, although I quite expected it. I can’t help but to wonder how long before reddit is gets taken over.

    6. TikTok U.S. joint venture will be owned by a consortium of investors:

      * 15% Oracle, will store US user data
      * 15% Silver Lake Technology Management
      * 15% MGX – a United Arab Emirates investment company
      * 30.1% will be held by affiliates of existing ByteDance investors
      * 19.9% will be retained by the China-based ByteDance.
      * The U.S. venture will have a new, seven-member majority-American board of directors, the memo said. It will also be subject to terms that “protect Americans’ data and U.S. national security.”
      * TikTok’s algorithm will be retrained on U.S. user data to “ensure the content feed is free from outside manipulation,”
      * The U.S. will also oversee content moderation and policies.

      Interesting stuff connecting MGX to the Trump administration: [Who’s Behind MGX? The Mysterious Investor Pouring Billions into Binance](https://thecoinomist.com/personalities/whos-behind-binances-whale-investor-mgx/)

      This is for only TikTok US, for the rest of the world it will business as usual for TikTok.

      Will US users be given the option to view the international version or will they live in a world of their own?

      >new entity will retrain TikTok’s algorithm on US user data

      So still a destabilization psyop.

      Great.

    8. If you thought misinformation and Right Wing troll farming was bad before, look out.

    9. Hope yall enjoy MAGA TikTok because Chinese TikTok was so evil and bad. I remember r/technology and how many downvotes I got these last few years…

      Let’s follow the money. How much is connected to the felon or his Nazi spawn? Or his fellow pedos?

    11. Biden signed the bill which forced TikTok to do this.. so all of you blaming maga are wrong. Biden did this for Israel because liberals are Zionists

      I wonder if Bytedance is trying to force Trump’s hand by announcing this through an internal company memo.

      No way would Trump et al would be happy with just the data. They want control over the algorithm, which is something China won’t want to give them.

      Guess I’m gonna have to continue not giving a shit about tiktok

    14. markatlarge on

      Do they have ant evidence TikTok did anything to Americans. I’m waiting for the DOJ charges. It’s likely to turn into a X.

    15. InconspicuousD on

      Someone that actually lives in the US explain to me how this is a legitimately worse alternative to a Chinese owned platform

    16. Can someone explain if this will end up blocking you from interacting with international users / users of the original TikTok app?

    17. The real question is will they push their propaganda slow enough so the current useful idiot base on TikTok transplants to the new/ conflicting propaganda, or will it be too quick and cause an exodus?

    18. HitByBrix42 on

      Any estimates on when this new app gets rolled out (assuming all parties approve it)?
