We have entered an new age of US gangsterism: threaten to arbitrary ban a company and buy its assets on the cheap. Obviously no WTO to the rescue: the US are blocking it by refusing to renew appeal judges. Appalling, obviously our Western 'free press' won't say shit.

The free world is so chill and easy when China bans every social media of them. And so pissed off when their government banned one app from China. By the way, None of this tech company not controlled by CCP.

Vile.

realDonaldTrump is hell bent on banning TikTok because it’s run in China & won’t win him the 2020 re-election and for the whole Tulsa incident. Didn’t think of banning Facebook after they helped win his campaign with help from Russian interference.

Like all Chinese tech giants, TikTok parent Bytedance has a Chinese Communist Party committee on the executive board. Pictured here is their Vice-CEO in a meeting on how to promote communist propaganda.

'Hey, guys, if we are spied, it's better when it's by us...'

. How does Microsoft remove all backdoors, Trojans from TikTok ? . How does Microsoft guarantee there will be no national security threats from TikTok ? . Imposing a Punitive Clause on Microsoft should our national security or privacy or human rights are violated ? .

Oh boy.

This one’s going to escalate.

Trump backs Microsoft buyout of TikTok after threat to ban Chinese video appNegotiations would involve a 'complete security review' and a promise that all user data would be stored in the US. Better ban them out right then spend money on something you can never guarantee to have control of. It's hard to believe a 'complete security review' wasn't already done by government cyber espionage specialists before allegations were launched at TikTok. Brilliant move. He takes it away from the Chinese and gives it to Americans. This is a part in how you win the war.
