TikTok’s owner asks for approval from Beijing under new export restrictions for a plan to turn the app into a U.S.-based company

TikTok’s Chinese owner said it is seeking approval from Beijing for a White House-endorsed plan to turn the short-video app into a U.S.-based company, officially placing the fate of the year’s hottest social-media asset in the hands of Chinese authorities.

ByteDance Ltd. said Thursday that it had submitted its plan, which involves partnering with Oracle Corp. and Walmart Inc., to commerce authorities in the Chinese capital under recently expanded export restrictions and is awaiting a decision.

It's better banned in the US, rather than 'sold' (grabbed away).

Shakedown

This seems like a U-turn from what they were saying previously

Under current terms, China would mostly say no.

nice

The American way of freedom is also conditional, only I freedom, democracy, you can not have a liberal democracy.

Democracy at it's best.

Telling Lies Trump lied about China government not having control of businesses within America's sovereignty. Demagogue Donald is rotten goods of China, owing tens of millions to China for his personal businesses. An honorable and real president would have cleared his debt first.

八国联军来圆明园抢国宝是没办法,可是现在还让西洋强盗公开抢劫,武松会答应吗?张一鸣就是武大郎不如的货色。

Why should the US allow TikTok when China doesn’t allow FB or IG or YouTube or Twitter?

Trump is gonna try to ban Walmart

nice

China unlikely to OK 'unfair' TikTok deal, state-run paper saysBeijing is unlikely to approve an 'unfair' deal Oracle and Walmart said they have struck with ByteDance over the future of its video-streaming app TikTok, state-backed newspaper says. These articles should mention that China routinely blocks US internet companies on security grounds and I don't think American politicians have ever much noticed. Doing the same shouldn't be that big a deal. Idk Lol.... then get rid of that spyware in the USA

Beijing unlikely to approve Oracle, Walmart's TikTok deal: Global TimesChina is unlikely to approve an 'unfair' deal Oracle Corp and Walmart Inc said they have struck with ByteDance over the future of video-streaming app TikTok, the state-backed Global Times newspaper said in an editorial. Who cares what China thinks about what happens in America? It's like trying to reason with someone drunk or high After Walmart and Oracle telling the world it was about to steal the company off TikTok with the help of the American Government, I can see why. I would be very surprised if China approved US takeover.

TikTok talks show how Trump's deal-making style can cause collateral damagePresident Trump's style of negotiation with TikTok caused a chain of events that were likely avoidable and affected the lives of thousands of Americans for better or worse. He doesn't care! He shares the same philosophy towards the United States as Al-Qaeda. Not biased at all. The deal isn’t complete morons.
