It's only great for scooping goofy dancing bytches..
Or promoting your products and/or services to the goofy dancing bytches. Or getting enough goofy dancing bytches to follow you on multiple platforms and get paid from ad revenue and affiliate links, at the very least…

I use TikTok but I could care less if it's banned. I need to get back to reading books anyway.

I personally find it sad that grown adult men are going to these lengths to defend TikTok when they know 1000% that China shouldn't have access to our information. These nikkas would use an app made by the Taliban if it was entertaining enough. It's sad af that nikkas are so simple minded.

How exactly is this going to work? Will it be when you try to access the app, you get blocked? What about using a VPN? I'm not sure how something like this will be enforced?

if the supreme court upholds a ban, they will start off slow by banning the website and app from the app store, then target U.S advertisers and financial institutions who work with tiktok so money stops flowing to bytedance and tiktok creators. this will put pressure on tiktok to ban U.S users ip addresses since they'd be losing money serving users who sideload and continue to use their installed app because theres fewer ways to profit from them. if tiktok doesn't ban U.S users at all then they will go after VPN's to comply with blocking them and international VPN operators might be sanctioned for aiding americans to evade the ban.

edit:
they will further develop a more comprehensive censorship system and body for blocking websites of various sorts. the MPA/MPAA has been wanting the government to do this too for years and now they've got their legal wedge to start censoring the internet.

I don't either.

I think Google wants to keep monopoly through youtube. They the whole shorts thing is basicly tiktok, once tik tok's banned creators will run to YouTube shorts.

Also, Zuckrberg will be grinning somewhere like a lizard once tik tok's gone.

i think tiktok is horrible but if you think this shyt is about some "motor oil challenge" or "misinformation" youve swallowed the lie already

facebook is so much WORSE but you dont hear a peep from our govt about it. they skated right through that cambridge analytica shyt.

this is being done to 1) help israel and 2) screw china. period

Took a while but they finally getting around to doing it. Being anti-China is about the only thing Congress can agree on these days and as I posted previously defense contractors want to ramp up the militarism surrounding it.

The owner has 9 months to sell the app, if he don't the app will still be accessible but you wouldn't be able to update it or download from the app store or Google play.
