Fight4HongKong I hope Vine can reborn

Connecting itself with Chinese TikTok, Twitter is committing suicide. If Twitter thinks it's gonna make some easy money, then it is wrong. TikTok will manage to behead Twitter later and it will return to China with Twitter head on a silver platter.

Cool. Will they rename it Long Vines?

Don’t waste money on a CCP App when 80% of its ‘ip’ is likely stolen and the other 20% backdoors and spyware. They CCP already has stolen enough from the US. We don’t need to openly give them our money tiktok_us Twitter Microsoft

so one communist organization buys another. nothing to see here, right jack.

What!🤨🤨🤨 Wow... It appeared a nice hack...Twitter had completely been hacked out of mind.

If it means many stupid video on twitter, I am out.

Ban tiktok

No. Just kill the application, think about our mistakes and restart.

so....Twiter shut down Vine only to merge with Tiktok ?

It’s 2020 and CEOs still think what makes a social network is an app & features instead of its users & culture. Forcibly mixing two very different online communities is like trying to mix cotton candy & water.

I know I'm not a loss but I will definitely ditch Twitter if this happens.

It won’t happen.

I don’t wanna see stupid dance app from China in twitter

american ego has already made world sad🥴 As usual it continues survival on stealing foreign talent. First Instagram then whatsapp and now tiktok They keep stealing but the good news is still facebook keep loosing🤣

ICYMI Mr. Paul Singer of Elliottmgmtcorp As one of the top 10 shareholders on Twitter, it’s best to learn & question more from the mgmt about the reasoning behind the firm acquiring TikTok, a CCP spyware, given many KOLs & users are leaving the platform for others now.
