The next replacement is just waiting in the wings I assume. They're like corner boys on The Wire. Can't kill them all.

A govt is all up in TikTok already. It’s just the communist govt of China. Also one that put up the Great Firewall of China to restrict outgoing and incoming info from China that help limit free flow of info from a little Global concern we have been having, and it also helps to restrict competition once they copy something made in another country.

Only party 1st Democrats and several big tech companies seem to think China is our true friend, but that’s also really about $.

To the idiot who downvoted me above

The Trump administration said it is banning China’s TikTok and WeChat from mobile app stores beginning Sunday in an unprecedented move that will sharply raise tensions with Beijing.

Uhhh, did you even read what you posted?
quote:

Oracle and ByteDance have submitted a proposal that would spin out TikTok’s global business into a new US company that would have an all-American board and a security committee headed by someone with government security clearances.

That means Oracle and ByteDance constructed, approved, and submitted for approval their business plan with it. That is their plans.

So where does any of that translate to Trump wanting to involve the government in the company? And you do realize that all publicly traded companies have to report to the SEC which is a part of the fed gov, which would require someone with security clearance, right?
