It’s important to be clear that TikTok could have stayed up through the inauguration. Joe Biden said he’d not enforce the law.
They made a choice to shut down and display a pro-Trump message. They weren’t forced to.

Imagine having a social media that wouldn't be licking trump's oily little fingers right now? No wait, let's make them an enemy instead so Trump can have influence over all the things
Damaging things, sowing chaos, then swooping in as the savior to make others dependent is the modus operandi of a psychopathic, malignant narcissist, Trump. TikTok is dead. Don’t be whipsawed by psychopaths.
Recently many of us have been saying: Republicans do all these dick moves. Why don't you do a few to - i don't know, save democracy? They don't. At this point, I honestly can't say they aren't complicit because of the amount of times they just didn't
The great democratic experiment may be over.
Yep none of this is shocking to me lol.
One, they do not want us to see and talk about this shady inauguration and Luigi's trial , and what will happen on that so called Day One.
The second reason is in plain view, Trump wants to be praised for bringing TikTok back 🤢.
They did not get a response.
But, Trump still needs a buyer. And the Chinese govt still needs to sell, for billions, or watch its value go to zero US
Will China get a deal on tariffs if they sell?
Will they give up the algo that makes Tic Tok tick?

I've heard this story before. Let me guess, they'll use trumps new crypto to facilitate the purchase.
The buck stops with Biden.
#DeactivateTikTok
That IS TikTok!
CNBC further reported that TikTok's advertising and user engagement contributed $24.2 billion to the U.S. GDP in 2023 alone, with TikTok's own operations adding another $8.5
Given that message, I think they were forced to by the incoming administration. He plans to let it be down for a couple of days then be a hero to all the kids by bringing back their website that Biden broke.
They are ALREADY bribing Trump.

Put the damn phone down. Go outside.
Interact with real humans.
Read a damn book.
Volunteer.
Take a class.
Understand how TikTok is not a hill to die on.

I draw your attention to November 4th, 2024 . . .
This started with Trump threatening to ban it because TikTokkers fucked with his rally sizes. pRiVaCy CoNcErNs were tacked on after the fact, and Dems just went along—without legislating any new privacy/data security laws.
💯 own goal.
as a result, there’s an entire theory about the 11th hour save.
It’s really unfortunate that community can’t continue to share info.
Good riddance.
