For clarity, TikToks US operations being sold to US
China still owns the master algorithm, which is the value

Current users of the app will be asked to shift to a new app, which TikTok has built and is testing, the Post reported.
Reuters had reported in July that TikTok was preparing to launch a standalone app for U.S. users, which was expected to operate on a separate algorithm and data system from its global app.

They want to license to U.S and just tweak it

There will be 2 apps. Unless other countries follow the US.

Might have to be some VPN business.

WHAT??????????

Oracle is a database company..... why would they own TikTok????????

And before someone says duhh, they will store that data.
No no, Oracle makes database management systems, they aren't AWS or Azure...

It's not a "tweak"

It's a new algorithm and data stream, the US will be isolated from the rest of the world. It's a different app at that point

who keeps tiktok.com? which domain do global users use?

China, Oracle only owns 80% of US operation and China keeps the other 20. The rest of the world will continue to use TikTok.com, US will have a controlled/censored fork of the same service

For the same reason the US owns a stake in Intel, somebody close to Trump and close enough to Oracle stands to benefit

And yes....Oracle will begin storing data they've had years to prepare back when Trump was in office the first time and this was floated. Otherwise there's no point

There's no way around data harvesting but I love how yall that got all these socials are bitter...

First step...dont have socials at least. Lol

Not going to lie, I'd rather be on China's algorithm than America's MAGA algorithm
