I think there will be some 11th hour move to save it or something. Don’t see them just taking it away. I could be wrong tho 
Supreme Court seems to signal they'll uphold the Tiktok ban

- Start date
Tik Tok is where I get my news from. You dont get news from IG because the algorithm is pretty much slutcraft.
You dont see any news outside of people you directly follow and they ban people for the stupidest shyt.
Almost everything I learned about Israel and Hamas happened because of tik tok. Any political issue, tik tok. Supreme court decisions? tik tok. Wild fires?
Tik Tok is not hell bent on showing you ass on the FYP like IG. Tik Tok is an actual agorithm that benefits you. IG programs you. The only other platform with as much live news is X but that platform is racist as fukk.

I don't use TikTok that much, to be honest.
I only signed up because my girl wanted me to, but I barely have any reason to go on there, so being banned won't mean anything to me.
I'm more of a Facebook person because I feel like you're actually around real people. Places like TikTok, Twitter/X, and Instagram are filled with bot accounts and spam pages galore.
People shyt on Facebook, but it's not that bad; it just depends on how your page is set up. See, I've had my Facebook since 2011, and I have all my family, childhood friends, middle school and high school associates, coworkers, and people who live in Syracuse and its surrounding areas plus following all types of pages, people, and things of all ilks, so my Facebook experience isn't lacking.
You need people in your circle to have a purpose for being on Facebook. Otherwise, there's no point in owning an account. Facebook is still popular among middle-aged and younger millennials, as well as some older gens. I'm not sure about Gen Z, but I think for most of them, it's still preferable in terms of being connected to family and friends, it's still the most interactive social media platform.

Sure thing! Here's your text formatted for Twitter with double spaces between each paragraph:
The Courts are Always at Least 15 Years Behind: It's Not Just an Anomaly, It's by Design.
Digital Privacy and Surveillance -
Law: Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) of 1986 - This act governs the interception of wire, oral, and electronic communications but does not account for many modern technologies.
Ruling: Carpenter v. United States (2018) - The Supreme Court ruled that accessing historical cell phone location records without a warrant is a Fourth Amendment violation, highlighting the outdated nature of ECPA in the context of modern technology.
Cybersecurity and Data Breaches -
Law: Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) of 1986 - Aimed at combating hacking, but its broad language leads to interpretations that don't fit contemporary cyber issues.
Ruling: United States v. Nosal (2012) - The Ninth Circuit held that accessing a computer system in violation of a company's use policy does not constitute "unauthorized access" under the CFAA, showing the law's limitations in addressing modern data access scenarios.
Intellectual Property in the Digital Realm -
Law: Copyright Act of 1976 with amendments like the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998 - These laws struggle with the digital distribution of content.
Ruling: MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd. (2005) - The Supreme Court ruled on the liability of peer-to-peer file-sharing software distributors, but the case highlighted the difficulties in applying copyright law to new technology platforms.
Internet Regulation and Freedom of Speech -
Law: Communications Decency Act (CDA) of 1996, Section 230 - Provides immunity to online service providers for content posted by users.
Ruling: Reno v. ACLU (1997) - The Court struck down parts of the CDA that criminalized "indecent" and "patently offensive" communications, illustrating early attempts to regulate internet content, but the broader protection under Section 230 has been debated in numerous contexts since, including cases like Doe v. Internet Brands, Inc. (2016), where courts have had to interpret how far this immunity extends in the face of evolving online harms.
Technology in Law Enforcement -
Law: No specific overarching law, but general principles like the Fourth Amendment are applied.
Ruling: Jones v. United States (2012) - The Supreme Court ruled that attaching a GPS device to a vehicle to monitor its movements constitutes a search under the Fourth Amendment, highlighting the need for legal frameworks to keep up with surveillance technology.
Ruling: Riley v. California (2014) - The Court ruled that police generally may not, without a warrant, search digital information on a cell phone seized from an individual who has been arrested, showing how traditional legal principles are being applied to new technologies.

any examples?
i've seen multiple black mommy influencers and women selling wigs, beauty and makeup accessories.
people who knit, sell custom clothing designs, stylists.
i've seen black people promote mobile car washing, steaming cleaning, carpet cleaning services, listing products to buy with affiliate links etc.
there was a thread on here a few months ago about a black man who uses tiktok to promote his tv mounting service.

TikTok Plans Immediate US Shutdown on Sunday
Sean Burch
Wed, January 15, 2025 at 10:35 AM EST
2 min read
TikTok plans on shutting down its app for American users on Sunday, Jan. 19, the same day a law banning the app in the United States goes into effect, according to multiple reports.
The move would see the popular app — which says it has 170 million monthly American users — going one step further than the law, signed by President Biden last April, requires. The law bans new downloads from Apple’s App Store and the Google Play app store, and also makes it “unlawful” to update the app. In other words, existing users could keep the app on their phones, but it would never update.
TikTok, which is owned by Beijing-based ByteDance, instead is planning on immediately shutting down in the States, The Information reported late on Tuesday night. Reuters confirmed the news on their end on Wednesday morning, saying TikTok plans on directing users on Sunday to a page about the ban and giving them an option to download their data.
The law banning TikTok requires ByteDance to divest its U.S. operations to remain operating in States. The chief concern U.S. lawmakers say they have with TikTok is that it could double as a spyware app for the Chinese communist government; TikTok, per Chinese law, is required to share user data if asked to do so.
In the days leading up to the ban, two Chinese social apps — Xiaohongshu and Lemon8, which is also run by ByteDance — have raced to the top of Apple’s App Store (You can read more about Lemon8 by clicking here).
A potential TikTok ban has been lingering for several years now. Donald Trump first proposed removing the app from the U.S. during his first term in office, before Congress ultimately passed the law banning the app last year.
Despite his initial support, President-elect Trump has since changed his tune on banning TikTok, saying last year that he would like to “save” the app. And in December, Trump reiterated he would like to keep TikTok in the U.S. He said he’d “take a look” at saving TikTok, noting he had a “warm spot” in his heart for it because it helped get young people to vote for him.
The Supreme Court is currently weighing TikTok’s plea to overturn the law banning the app, but it does not appear likely before Sunday, when the app’s ban date hits.
The post TikTok Plans Immediate US Shutdown on Sunday appeared first on TheWrap.
