            I'm sorry, what, did I just read Roblox co-founder/CEO? I'm dead. 🤣

            Really, the only company on this list that's reputable imo is Microsoft. I sure as heck would rather use Microsoft-owned tiktok than Roblox-owned or MrBeast-owned tiktok.

                  Not quite sure how TikTok is a national security issue for the US. Except of course it is unpleasant foreign business competition - from China!

                    Profit isn't important anymore for these billionaire owners, they just want to use it as a tool to manipulate people.

                    And no, that's not being paranoid. Look at what Elon is using twitter for.

                        Hope Tiktok choose Gold instead of toilet paper US dollar for trade if ever they sell.

                          if twitter was sold for 45bn and they haven't made a buck in profit since its existence, how the hell is tiktok going to be sold for less than half when they are a very profitable company?

                            Dometalican, 30 Jan 2025$20 billion could be used for SO much better than this...As outrageous as it sounds, $20 billion is actually a lowball offer. Tiktok, even just its US operations alone, is valued much higher than $20 billion.
