  4.  @aerix12345  The owner Bytedance is a registered company. But the company wants to be a Global company. Trump will change his labeling to justify his action. one example, Broadcom an American company bought by Avago a HP spin off. Can't get any more American than this.Broadcom wanted to buy Qualcom for $270B, The deal was rejected by Trump saying the company is Chinese because the CEO is Chinese living in Singapore. However, when he sanctioned Huawei, and US company can't sell to Huawei. All of a sudden Broadcom is now a US company and can't do business with Huawei. And there are similar stories with CK Hutchinson and Foxconn. Foxconn is a Chinese company that build iphone until it build a factory in Wisconsin. Now it's American? The tiktok case is about money. Peter Navaro, a Trump advisor is now saying Microsoft is not an American company, but a multi-National. In order for them to buy Tiktok they will have to sell the Bing, Skype and Windows OS. Tiktok's investors Sequoia and Atlantics are also proposing buying the company themselves. Why? Tiktok is valued at $50B right now. This is a fire sales. If they can get it for $25B, they can easily get $100B in IPO. FB is at $350B. There is a lot of money to be made here. Supposedly there are 7 other entities that want to buy them. FB Reel is coming out this month. Imagine if Trump put Tiktok out of business. How much is FB going to be making? Somebody is making a lot of campaign contribution. You see I am very cynical.

  5.  @alsamiyasfh4416  CCP can just buy it from FB. No need to create a company to steal. BTW, Tiktok is funded by VC in the silicon valley.

  7. They should ban Tiktok and we can finally fix the whole social media privacy. Once they banned Tiktok, tiktok will sue the government based on free speech. The government will present the argument for privacy. The court will then rule on it. Then at least, we will have some guidance on privacy for ALL social media.

  8. US companies will sell you the data if you have money, Phone number address, credit report, you name it. The Patriot act also mandated you to turn over data, So yes you are right and more right than you think.

  11.  @iamthegameandiwanttoplay98  When you have the phone you already paid the access fee for using the bandwidth. Tiktok already paid the business license. So what the fee for? M&A? A fee to operate social media?. Do Twitter and FB have to pay it retroactively. A foreign company license perhaps? Well. Microsoft is an American company. Capital Gain Tax? Foreigners are not subject to capital gain Tax. And the investors are from Silicon Valley. So what is this fee for, again?

  13.  @charlesoutdoors2424  US law does not forbid collection of user data and selling it. mailing list, credit reports are sold all the time. Social media are free.Their real product is user data. See FB/Cambridge Analytica. At least tictok banned poltical posts and political ad. FB doesn't.
