The most ironic thing here is that China beat the US at its own game, they thought China would slowly become a more democratic country but here we are, discussing censoring a form of social media, literally the opposite of what MURICAAAAA and FREEEDOOM stands for

The ban isn't really enforceable in the 1st place. Having it removed from app stores doesn't prevent people from using or installing it.

Jailbreaking is possible but not reasonable for most people, sideloading is not.

Until and until Beijing approves the deal (and it doesn't seem likely to happen at this rate), it's the same as not having happened yet.

Tiktok rejected the offer https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/13/technology/tiktok-microsoft-oracle-bytedance.amp.html
i imagine china threw a fuckton of money at them, or just told them no. i've no clue why people think tiktok is a danger to americans with no direct connection to china, but for the chinese citizens its just one more way for them to track their activity.

An invasion on US soil by any country would almost immediately end in said country being reduced to atomic vapor. Of course we'd be vaporized too buy the domino effect of nukes reducing the planet to uninhabitable glass, but...

No, I know the actual challenges have been around far longer than TikTok, but Im saying that their popularity and number of videos have increased since then. Whether its due to people wanting to share it online even more or kids just getting stupider, I cant say.

At any rate, it was just a joke that seemed to go whoosh
