Tiktok is not owned by China, the owner is from Singapore which is a US Ally

The fight to ban TikTok is just a xenophobic witch hunt
from what i can gather, tiktok was founded/developed by a chinese company (bytedance), though at this point they retain a 20% stake in it. it's headquartered in singapore and the usa, incorporated in a caribbean tax shelter country, and its ceo for the past few years is singaporean.

so yeah, xenophobic witch hunt / moral panic, likely backed by anticompetitive american corporate influences, and a seething political apparatus that can't exert political control / influence / censorship of its content.

Might want to also check out the ingredients list. There's another form of -flation called crapflation where they use cheaper ingredients to increase profit margins. All of this shit was happening before the pandemic, but after they went very hard into it, making it that much more obvious.

If Elon will be the d bag to sue this another d bag to slow down the ai takeover for even a few months I say go for it. But the fact that Elon is filing the lawsuit makes me think there is zero merit to it.
there's obviously an anticompetitive motive at play, seeing as he has his own competing ai product
