Meta or LinkedIn or Walmart MLE?
If you think sell is the option, which company will buy it?
Why would they sell? Their core algorithm and IP is what makes them stand out. Why would they sell that?
Their core algorithm is just encouraging and promoting degen content which any company can develop themselves. They just blew up at the right time and it’s hard to compete with their established huge user base
oracle, if sold which is unlikely
Get sold to Meta...
They will sell, unless the CCP wants ByteDance to eat the loss just to show they will not cave in to blackmail. Whether that includes the algorithm is another story. Personally, I don't think the IP is all that and of such strategic importance that it will be worth it to tank the value of the sale. Then again, outside non Chinese investors own more than 60% of the firm so the CCP may well be willing to make them take a bath while making sure the algorithm stays under their control.
Exactky. CCP will make Bytedance eat the Los.
It’s less about the algorithm and more about confusion with two TikToks, and distraction from transfer of knowledge.
They already said (unofficially) they won't sell. After all the legal options are exhausted, they will shut it down in the USA.
They will sell the data to either Alphabet or Meta and wind up operations.
Tiktok is banned in India snd now they are losing usa too so they are losing 2 of their biggest markets within just 3 years . No matter how crazy ccp is , they understand the power of money..tiktok will cave in . It is just matter of time . However before they do cave in , they will make a lot of noise about fair market, democratic rights , oppression blah blah blah (what an irony 😂)
Selling the USA operations will just cause confusion when there are two TikToks. One for USA and one for outside of USA. They don’t want to dilute the brand so it makes business sense to just shutdown USA.
Ban gets voided in courts and free speech is upheld in the US
none it will survive
TiTtok?
He meant TiTkoK
Unintentional joke 😀
