      They want tiktok for half the price of what Musk paid dor Twitter. Tiktok despite having a user base massively larger than Twitter. Tiktok should just laugh at them whenever they get to present the offer.

        Anonymous, 30 Jan 2025Very true. The algorithm is the real power behind the scene... moreThis is the part that you're wrong.
        Actually TikTok algorithm is standard.
        YT, FB & X actually know....
        Standard means if you like it, you'll get more of it. If you dislike it, you won't get more.

        This is NOT about buying the algorithm.
        This is about buying the user based to CONTROL it.
        Whatever the American company that buy it will put standard "NED" algorithm.
        In which, what ever you like or dislike, they gonna push the one that they think the user will accept.

            Phoenix1984, 30 Jan 2025Does it matter who buys TikTok? Unless they get the algorit... moreVery true. The algorithm is the real power behind the scenes and I don't see why ByteDance will even entertain the idea of selling it to the Americans.

              100 billion should be the minimum since its competing with Meta, even though i will never use the app...lol

My bad tho if you didn't mean anything and were just memeing. I don't really use xitter, toxic ahh place.

                  jiyen235, 30 Jan 2025man, zoomers/millenials change their ideology like clothes ... morei have no idea what you are saying, i never was changing anything/siding with anything nor my ideologies are any of your concern, this is a tech news website not some political place, if you want any of that go back to twitter and discuss it not here.

                    Bennis, 30 Jan 2025Any MrBeast haters in the comms? C'mon, anyone abo... moreI'm no haters. But, I know that one of Mr. Beast friend who is also working with him and happened to be trans woman. Involved in sexual assault on some girl. You know what Mr. Beast did? He pretending like he didn't know. Now, go figure it out.

                      Does it matter who buys TikTok? Unless they get the algorithm its not really worth it.

                        jiyen235, 30 Jan 2025I do know that, what's your point? Nothing's pro-... moreThe point of TikTok not selling was that it was uncensored and offered free speech. However, that has changed in the US after January 19th. And will only get worse if they sell to any of these US companies.

                          ThatOneWeabo, 30 Jan 2025welcome to 2025 buddy.man, zoomers/millenials change their ideology like clothes "oh it's a new season, we're supporting something different now".

                          What do you even mean "welcome to 2025"? LMAO goofy ahh

                            Bennis, 30 Jan 2025Isn't Elon worth over 400 billion? And companies like ... moreyeah lol that's what im saying.

                            But also do keep in mind that these sums are all including ASSETS. You won't really be able to suddenly use like 400 billion dollars if you're Elon Musk, you have access to places WORTH that but it's not like you have that much in cold, hard cash. And Microsoft.... well. I highly doubt they'd do much, they're all negotiating for the least amount they can pay for the most amount of benefits. Even if you're a trillion dollar company you'd still want to save a few bucks here and there. Don't ask me why but that's juts how it is lol, take a look at Apple or NVIDIA's products and their terrible value. And a more familiar face is Samsung, horrendous value and basically the same phone as the S22 Ultra in essence yet prices are higher and features are getting cut/costs are getting cut.

                              Anonymous, 30 Jan 2025You realize that all of these buyers are pro-censorship, right?I do know that, what's your point? Nothing's pro-freedom/free speech anymore, i've kinda accepted that at this point. I'm truly blackpilled on all this lol

                                TikTok worldwide is a trillion dollar company. US business alone is hundreds of billions. Offering $20 bln for this is rich.

                                    It's all about the money. The masses are being played by clowns and they don't notice it.

Fortunately for civilization, it looks as if Bytedance will refuse to sell and just eat the ban. Hopefully European countries will wake up to the infiltration just like many of them did with Huawei and ZTE network infrastructure, and join suit in banning TikTok.
