Here's Who Could Potentially Buy TikTok In The U.S.

President Joe Biden signed into law Wednesday a bill that would ban TikTok unless its parent company ByteDance finds a U.S.-based buyer-and several potential U.S. buyers have already signaled interest in or have been rumored to be exploring purchasing the popular social media platform.

Elon says… no thanks I'm having enough trouble with my X.

[@MrJamiez]

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 Normally I'd correct people and say twitter. This is pure funny 😅😅

[@sterlthepearl1000]

X should make finding videos a lot easier on how Instagram does it.

[@fredleung1517]

It's typical American highway robbery. Don't sell it, just close it completely.

[@MayoneRajan]

Closing it completely isn't possible. It will continue to be run by other countries' governments.

[@t-point7569]

Ban onlyfans

[@ekujohnson1362]

Tik Tok is not for sale innovate your own use your brain.

[@MrGriff305]

That's why RUclips dominates

[@wm6746]

Steve minuchin aka film producer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@vlhc4642]

Literally illegal for ByteDance to sell under Chinese export control law.

[@user-qy9hn1ii3l]

Why Americans are making Chinese selling their TikTok? 😢

[@HarukiYamamoto]

Not enough censorship!

[@terrys7666]

They are not selling it 😂😂😂

[@wds3222]

Then get ban lol Even better.

[@vlhc4642]

@@wds3222 Why wait then? TikTok controls what 170 million Americans see everyday, you don't think they can teach everyone how to bypass the censor? lol

[@archstanton5973]

@@wds3222 170 million MURCAN users is nothing as world users is 1 BILLION.
ByteDance will let MURCA! ban it as it will never sell not when it has that 1 BILLION world users.

[@sterlthepearl1000]

So when is an American company going to buy Tiktok? If any company in America buys it.

[@flyflybaby2723]

Kevin O'leary is *NOT* buying tiktok!

[@jstn616]

Soulja Boy

[@MG007.]

My Truth Social should by it.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@hyperpt4237]

That Sharks don't have enough money to buy tik tok.

[@zt2155]

if it dies, it dies.

[@marylaistirland6864]

This is highway robbery

[@IReapZz95]

I'm surprise not see apple here with how much money they have just sitting around just for M&A

[@NancyK-cu6xj]

They must know something. Or they don't want to be known for something.

[@wm6746]

Microsoft will buy it

[@MrGriff305]

Meta or Alphabet should buy it.

[@mehtacotute]

We all know the answer will somehow be blackrock

[@kevinlopez3414]

The American people should come together and own it 😒

[@user-kf5qf4op1i]

Or maybe actually say no to their corrupt government.

[@cshigenaka]

It's already over half American owned

[@MyChannel-1999]

Sorry, i never used tiktok and all Chinese apps

[@gamaigia9270]

Meta will buy it. They need a better platform to collect more personal data.

[@lextacy2008]

Congress: Lets let China run our rental properties
Congress: Lets let China run our manufacturing
Congress: Lets let China run our food production
Congress: Lets let China run our restaurants
Congress: Tik Tok? Oh we can't have that
This ban will be shot down on that basis alone

[@amazinginterstate95ownbtcp84]

Biden fault vote him out

[@CourageUnderFire87]

Facebook needs to go!

[@EDub513]

Amen!

[@aboutwhatever77]

I'll buy it --- then shut it down

[@WildBoyLiv]

I’ll buy tik tok fr they need to sell it to me

[@jareddixon9108]

Meta will probably buy it

[@posthocprior]

If you aren't getting the IP, the data and the algorithms, there's no point. If TikTok is banned, hire a team to reverse engineer the recommendation algorithm and copy the UI. This will be a lot cheaper than buying the domain name TikTok.

[@mehtacotute]

So youtube shorts and the like?

[@First1ToComment]

Ban it already 🎉🎉

[@jacksonmarshallkramer5087]

Elon Musk should buy it.

[@damoneboyd9945]

Yes ask him how his last company he brought went down

[@NancyK-cu6xj]

No Elon shouldn't buy it. I know, let the Democratic Party buy it. Maybe Obama, Biden, and the Clintons could all chip in.

[@tfkdandsvkc]

Mark Zuckerberg or elon musk should buy it

[@user-yw6wh4sm2z]

Tik Tok shines a light

[@user-im7sj7gr2v]

Elon . Elon Elon.

[@gsoros123]

Bytedance isn't selling.

[@drscopeify]

good then shut it down. The USA needs to also block access just like how China blocks RUclips it is only fair.

[@MrJamiez]

Americans, 😅😅🤡 download a VPN.
