It's a can that will continue to get kicked down the road. Do it or don't, but lets be done with it already.

I don't think I can add anything further here. The first two guys pretty much explained it pretty well. Just the can being kicked down the road. Supposedly the due date is coming up for tiktok to decide who can buy the corporation, but I wouldn't be surprised if they kick the can down the road again like the other guys said.

Otherwise if Congress and the president actually hold their word to this, then tiktok will have no other choice but to eventually choose a buyer when the timer runs out (tiktok), or they're going to be banned for good this time. That's it, that's all, no take backsies. They had their chance.

Honestly, I thought this and again I would be surprised if they kicked the can down the road again. But I would love love love to see them get banned for good. The censorship on that platform was horrible before the ban, and got worse after it. Never thought I would see the date where tech talkers would have to go to YouTube as sanctuary from censorship. Because censorship on YouTube is very bad. But compared to tiktok, if YouTube was a UK arresting people over inappropriate means, tick tock is Russia that will arrest somebody who says anything negative about Papa Shou (as a placeholder for papa Putin) and throw your ass into a digital gulag.

When they got banned the first time, they had a taste of their own medicine and didn't learn a motherfucking thing. I hope they get a taste of it again, and they're forced to down the entire fucking bottle. I hope they metaphorically overdose on it and start foaming at the mouth. But I doubt it. Now we just got to wait and see what happens. If anything will go through.

Tik Tok was in serious talks to sell until Trump waged a tariff war on China. Now they're vowing NEVER to sell, so I'm gonna say you've got 75 days til it's done. The sale is a law passed by Congress. The only way to get rid of it is for Congress to pass another law deleting it. So far, The House has introduced no such law to be voted on, and it probs wouldn't pass anyway.
