    what a bizarre couple of days....

    TikTok seems to be under Meta now. This shutdown was just to update the algorithm or something. All a ploy to make it look like trump "did something".

    What do you mean by "under Meta"?

    Meme coins manipulated crypto coins where a lot of people end up bag holding worthless coins and a few people make a lot of money at their expense. A few big winners and lots of small losers for the most part.

    I think Meta is running it now. No solid info but that seems to be the solution. Meta will run the algorithm and serve to satisfy the limits that the gov't wanted put on tiktok.  All done under the guise of Biden took it away and trump brought it back.

    Do you have TikTok? If you scroll around a bit you'll see people talking about it.

    I cannot find anything that connects those two companies right now.  Sounds like a bunch of TT bullshit.  And no, I don't have it on my phone.  

    Trump has the authority to authorize a 90 day stay.  That was in the legislation.  So the EO he writes tomorrow does have the effect of putting it back online, and within the law. But then there has to be a group to whom Bytedance will sell.  So far they have been unwilling to entertain any offer, which makes one think that the CCP is moving behind the scenes.  If this was purely a capitalist organization, it should be for sale.  Everything is for sale.

    My question is why did TT shut down when it didn't have to? 

    Why did TT blame Biden upon shutdown even though Biden had said the DOJ wasn't going to pursue TT...and clearly he's out of office today.

    Why did TT come back with a big message thanking trump and now there are no live feeds in TT?

    Just odd

    but yeah...could just be internet bullshit. STill odd that FB now has a TT page...nice and fresh...no posts, etc. And now you have the option to share TT videos on FB/Insta that wasn't there before.

    1. TikTok shut down Sat night because the carriers were following the law.  That went into effect on Sunday.  Then Trump assured the carriers through his channels that he would EO it back online today.  So with those assurances, the carriers brought it back.  That is my understanding.  

    2. Why did TT blame Biden?  Well that seems politically obvious.  Blame the Democrat for shutting it down and praise the easily-manipulated-by-flattery president taking over.  

    3. Also the same reason why they are "thanking Trump".  I have no idea about the feeds.

    If it was I’d be thrilled with that. I have no particular animosity to TT, I just don’t want our data going there. And meta taking it is much better than Musk. 

    In a proper DOJ world, there’s no way that either Meta or X should be able to buy that platform. It should violate anti-trust laws. But I’m not confident how this administration would enforce those types of laws.

    I don't necessarily "mind" it...the fawning over trump is what bothers me but I get it. Anyone can get what they want just by saying trump is the greatest.
