Social media addiction is real. We really about to birth the worst generation ever. Bunch of people searching for validation from strangers online. Dopamine hits from social media notifications curated by an algorithm from these platforms spying on your phone. A bunch of men with gambling and porn addiction. Seeking relationship and life advice from YouTube.

Gen Z already went through that and that's why they are the dumbest Americans on record. They can't read or complete a simple math problem. For every Gen Zer who uses these apps for practical business purposes and makes money off them, there are a thousand people who use the apps and are braindead retards

Intel and Qualcomm lost 11 billion annually selling chips and Huawei lost 30 billion annually since they can't use the US company's chips.....You also can't access the play store and you have to use workarounds that may get your phone hacked. Tiktok will lose 1 Billion 1st month, creators will lose 300 million.


Get a VPN then, you can still use it if you want....but "national security is national security" whether software, hardware or app....We used the platform for business, but we aint crying about it, we still getting money without it.

shyt usually falls off anyway, so you gotta adapt when something like this happens, a company sells or people stop using platforms heavy ike (snap, vine, myspace, etc). You can't get dependent on an app, we've had accounts banned and had to start over multiple times.

My personal IG account got banned last weekend for making a comment and I had to appeal it, luckily they said it was a mistake. We have had Shopify ban us from the platform saying products weren't within it's guidelines and had to adapt by going to another platform..... we got it appealed in the courts and after a few years back on shopify, but essentially starting over again.

If Trump fixes it, good, if not, oh well, life goes on pleighboi ... do I think the ban is silly, yes, but money still a mek :wow:

if shyt usually falls off , why didn't they wait for it to fall off? :martin:

yes the market determined who had the better product and users made their choice, just like they chose tiktok over all the other platforms so much so they blatantly copied tiktok format and features to get those users too but it didn't work. so they ran to the government and starting running negative stories in the media to get the competition banned.

It is what it is, shyt may be back tomorrow or Tuesday. I know the CEO is going to the inauguration. Trump learned to love tiktok during his election so I'm sure he will do his best, if not, there will be something else to fill its place soon.

If people actually cared about the voting process the same way they do about TikTok, we'd be in a better spot.

Americans are functionally retarded..

if lebron was 5'4 he wouldnt be a famous ball player

we gotta deal with reality not hypotheticals.

people are gonna be pissed and trump is gonna look like a savior for even "trying" to save tiktok, whether or not he actually does

Valid point.



I was at a semi-formal event last night and the person was asking telling Tik Tok jokesabout only a "few more hours" but was kind of serious too.

The snow has hit everywhere, but follks is already melting down

You nikkas are addicted and need help. Apps come n go. Yall act like it’s really the end of the world out here over a dopamine hit app.
These mentally feeble ass people be the main ones talking shyt, being racist, lying about themselves and everything else. shyt is wild to see. It’s why I don’t take anyone serious if they are into social media like that. Posting or consuming.
