So many people are leaving en masse, it will lose tons of money. Bytedance still hold a significant stake in the company. I wonder how this will go over for them as they will hermitage money along with Oracle.

I think it's a combination of "omg ur all here, we can watch u all, all the time and u won't care because ur having fun" and "we will take this thing down from the inside" since they couldn't just keep people off the app,

Who is surprised by this?! Everyone seems to forget happened about a year ago where it went poof and then some back room shady shit went down before it came back up. What did you think they were doing? Having a nice lunch? No! They got shit set up so that it could be heavily monitored/cut.

Republicans always “steal” elections by pushing out their propaganda on their right wing billionaire owned media. This has been going on for decades and it’s only getting worse. Americans need to be smarter than the propaganda. I have little confidence they will and TikTok will make Fox look mild.

I am American and I certainly never voted for him but he still shits in the Oval Office. I knew we were in trouble when my fellow Americans weren’t smart enough to vote against Bush II in 2004.

I resent the phrase "Americans weren't smart enough." He received less than 50% of the votes of the people who did vote. 90 million eligible voters failed to vote at all. I can't vouch for their intelligence levels.

Exactly! The 90 million non-voters need to start giving a damn and vote! I want to scream every time I hear a person say they "aren't political!"

Most studies indicate that if more people voted he would have won by even more because most people don’t bother to pay attention and vote only based on name recognition. That says everything about their intelligence.

Try putting the name Trump up and see what happens. Also try finding a video of the killings in Minnesota that hasn't been censored. Trump's and his criminal government is blocking anything that goes against him. BOYCOT TikTok and anything Trump like X.

Just deleted the app when the news terms screen came up. They aren’t even trying to hide the invasions to our privacy

"Big Brother and the thought police are keeping you safe. We have always been at war with Eurasia. Comrade, remember 3 minutes hate. Freedom is slavery, slavery is freedom. Love is hate, hate is love. Consume." 2026 America, or 1984 Oceana?

Too many of the youth posting about free Palestine and that was too much for Aipac… It was never about China

True. China has been a very good diversion and, just use the key buzzwords. “Communist”, “Uighur”, “Xi” to distract from the real issues. But in this case AIPAC called for the plug to be pulled.

It’s sad. What’s even more harrowing is realizing that this violence has been being committed against black people for centuries, and those unfortunate enough to be America’s enemies overseas. That being said— this all feels like some bad fever dream.

Here, I’ll help all users fix the problem. Hold down the icon that is labeled TicToc on your phone. Select delete Confirm “yes I want to delete this app”. Problem solved

Yeah, I didn’t delete my account soon enough. I couldn’t get past the new agreement to delete my account/data so I sent a request to privacy@tiktok.com. Don’t know if it will work, but got the info from ai (so you know it’s right 😉).

The algorithm will shift to the right, and posts with content that does not follow the "dominant narrative or that is identified as problematic" will be condemned to irrelevance, as we already saw with Twitter.

Seriously fuck tic to it's part of this nazi administration same with CBS faux news and most of main stream media fuck them all and seriously fuck all the journalists thst aren't calling this shit out daily

Yeah, I'm good never using TikTok. I don't even use Instagram. I have Facebook, only because of events I run that require the use of Facebook... And staying in touch with friends. I really just use Bluesky and Discord, lol. TikTok rots your brain.

Just like anything built in America. It breaks almost right away. It’s why whenever I hear something is American made I try to avoid it. In my opinion European stuff is the best made. Chinese stuff is well built as well assuming you are not buying cheap.

I deleted the app yesterday, all i could see were random low-quality “viral” videos, celebrity news, and videos in Russian. The enshittification was so fast, Silicon Valley has outdone itself
