This week’s This American Life, which is produced by NPR, [don’t worry guys, Relaxer will now be back within 12 hours] led me to believe TikTok goes by another name there and is a huge problem for the CCP’s Internet filtering attempts.

Douyin.

Only one Chinese national on the board of parent company, Bytedance (the founder, Zhang Yiming) and they just hired an American to handle their security.

I'm still not using it though.

Post by: sweetcell on August 03, 2020, 08:04:00 pm: so today trump said he would "allow" Microsoft to buy TikTok as long as the US Treasury got paid. since his government was "enabling" the sale, he needs a cut.

just wow.

To hear him say that on camera made my jaw drop
president quid pro quo (https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1290341695939379203?s=21)

I just don’t know how all these free trade conservative Republicans don’t flip out when he says stuff like this
it’s literally crickets

Could you imagine Bernie Sanders proposing something like this
It would be a month of them losing their shit on Camera about the government interfering with businesses

Honestly it’s all about shock and awe
And it’s working
I’m both shocked and In awe That the stuff just happens in plain sight

The Commerce Department announced Friday morning that it will prohibit U.S. business transactions with messaging app WeChat starting Sept. 20 and video-sharing app TikTok on Nov. 12.

I notice Jared's favoite WhatsApp didn't get cut

This is sooo stupid, even my 10yr old knows how to install a VPN and install it
is this because there is soo much Anti-Trump stuff on TT?
