- TikTok's Chinese Owner ByteDance Prefers Shutting it Down in US than Selling it: Reports
ByteDance, the Chinese parent company of TikTok, is facing a crucial decision amidst legal battles in the US. With speculation rife about potential bans on TikTok, ByteDance is reportedly considering shutting down the app rather than selling it. This move comes as ByteDance deems TikTok's algorithms integral to its overall operations, making a sale with these algorithms highly improbable. A US legislation signed by President Biden mandates TikTok to divest from ByteDance within nine months or face a total ban. TikTok slammed this bill and said it could trample the free speech rights of Americans. TikTok has said, it will challenge this legislation in court.

It's also time to ban WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram and so on
they already do everything Nancy and her buddies tell them to...they are "safe" :D
google, meta, amazon, msft, etc ALL SPY ON US AND THE GLOBE! THAT'S A FACT! but, still NO proof they spy for the Chinese govt!
Facebook is the OG than TikTok though
@@Manly_face What’s OG?
@@superduper5514 Original
15:28 Always reminisce about the extraordinary day of December 8, 2021. An Indian highest priority VIP helicopter mission transporting India's most important senior commander Bipin as well as many of India's most highest ranking captains, generals, officers, chiefs, squadron leaders all onboard crashed resulting in the death of all 14 passengers. If India cannot even guarantee their most senior military officer safety during a short and simple 4 minute flight, how can they possibly accomplish anything?
This isn't a story concocted by India's opponents to paint India's military as inept. It's a factual account supported by concrete evidence captured on video. This incident will undoubtedly be recorded in history as one of the most remarkable of all time
60 year's of congress :- democracy
10 years of BJP :- dictatorship
Ayyo..this chinese bot😂😂😂
WTH is that DP?
@@pubgaf3356fuck democracy which can't even feed it's people
@@dipayanmandal15 If you go into the channel you will see all bad things said about India in his videos.
Yes, shut it down in US, WHY SHOULD YOU SELL TO US?
obviously you have shallow mind, let me give you another example, let's say you own TikTok and your american and you invested huge amount of money in China, now CHina wants you to sell it to them, meaning everything including operational and technical which means they know everything and will do anything to TikTok even the secret things about it, would you sell it?
You think in the same way as facebook and twitter to be sold to domestic authorities worldwide haaaaaa ???
Hypocracy under democracy !!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What if every single state throughout the world shuts down Facebook, Twitter,... etc ???
Would you respond in the same way ???
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
China has banned all US apps or put strict conditions in China , US should do the favour
Shut it down in all european countries. Don't sell it.
yes please, shut it down. Then we need to ban all other chinese trojan apps
They CAN'T sell it. China won't let them. 🤣
China has banned all US apps or put strict conditions in China , US should do the favour
mr expert
SHUT IT DOWN WE DONT CARE 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Winnie the Pooh is mad!!!
Shut it down!!
@@whoamigodknows9020 Well I did call this reaction of them refusing to sell a mile away. Because China needs to continue to use them.
Honestly I'm with Mr.Chow.
I support you Sir though i don't use TikTok.
and if we cared about opinions from wumaos that are subservient to the ccp even while having to use an illegal VPN to avoid the firewall...
of course you do, Democrats are trying to steal the company and for cheap.
Bro that app is a menace it steals ur data and china has full control over it's data plus the Chinese version is like an educational app not like how the us one looks 🎉
why 9 month .. shut it down now.. China not allowing USA apps .. why USA .. close this garbage thing.
Its a lot better than "fake bots" and "hacked accounts" Facebook and "bougie" and "low energy" Instagram two of the most restricted social apps out there. With Facebook, you're dealing with tired high school friends and family who hate on your lifestyle and Instagram where everybody is into twerking and fake lifestyles.

I believe you speak for yourself, right.
Haha page eight dancing in joy 😊🤣
@@bobbyhabib2827 No
He speaks for a *Lot* of people.
Read many of the other comments under this video.
Don't use it, don't need it, don't want it. Useless application.
Why u thinking about it now?
Then shut it down. All it is doing is causing our teenagers to act like fools. They can deal with it, and learn to grow up.
please ban it in Africa too ,
Begani Shaadi mein neegai deewana 🙄
👍
Africa needs to make one the .. -signed king of Africa.. dont joint hype bands..
Africans needs to learn minding their own business
Don't sell. Shut it down
Please shut it down in US
I think it is already banned in many countries
Europe needs to ban it too. Same for wechat and the rest of the chinese military software
All allies with the US😅😅😅😅😅
As someone who works in a Singaporean company, this is as much as I can support your decision, but the last thing you want is to go down that direction of BlackBerry which eventually is irrelevant in the US.
IF you believe this, you'll believe anything. Call his bluff, sell it, or shut it.
Where is your famous democracy that you export throughout the world but never employeed for domestic use ???
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The first duty of a government in a democracy is to its people. Not to some foreign agency's company and its mobile application.
@@noclichepleaseMeanwhile European democracies don't have an independent foreign policy because big brother USA has them by the balls. So much for their first duty to the European people.
@@noclicheplease ah so the ban must've been a voted decision of the american people, right?
@@pizzatime9565 if you’re done smoking weed, please spend some time to learn how democracy works.
@@noclicheplease in the US or in the democratic countries? Huge difference, starting with voting.
Senetor, I'm not chinese. I served my militiary in Singapore. !!!!!
He’s working for Winnie the Pooh. They won’t let him sell it 😂😂😂😂
@@StealthHalcon9 Ikr, 😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Thats why the senator was asking him continuously about his links to ccp
But people were making fool out of him
@@pikachuthunderbolt3919 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wait wait so you guys saying Tiktok is a Chinese Company? But the CEO said it is already a Singapore Company and China has no internal decision making control of Tiktok.
Ban it
If indian govt. can ban Chinese apps so why can't American or western governments.
They got all the data they needed on everybody. Why should they keep it up????
Why not ???
It is the current data and how much you can influence with it, that matters.
China has banned all US apps or put strict conditions in China , US should do the favour
yah, they did steal a lot of data already. So close it down immediately
Isn't CIA getting data from American giants Google meta etc,😂😂
Better late than never.
I agree never bow to the colonial power
America is the colonial powers remember we started out as the 13 colonies, united we stand devided we fall. Now it's 50 colonies also called states.
@@johnrathbun2943 How did China got big then? Didn't they conquered smaller states, absorb and Han-ify it? Same thing buddy.
The us have been preaching for free speech human right
... and if you even had the slightest understand of what free speech or democracy, separation of powers and civilian rights were, you might undeerstand the difference.
The people don’t want it. We can create our own in seconds if they shut it down 😂😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@StealthHalcon9 was 100% based on our tech and our intellectual property so yah, easy
Free speech, yes. Free after speech, your responsibility
If I have to read it myself on RUclips I prefer to read the article than try to lead with loud background in RUclips channel.
Africa needs to wake up on Facebook and other social media
No he’s arrogant! They tried soliciting me I didn’t bite. I hope they leave forevermore and,people stop there mindless scrolling. Do something worthwhile.
What they did with the force calling of representatives, however funny that could have been for the corrupt politicians, is very questionable. Shows how much low these guys are gonna go to get support.
😂😂😂😂😂very very scared that they will get exposed and dealing in malicious activities
Or maybe the owners prefer to keep their very profitable product rather than part with it, but hey🤷
It's not only government's issue but even the people of US should not install such apps. Like in India we didn't install those apps.
So if government is not banning it then just boycott such apps and give them negative review
China has banned all US apps or put strict conditions in China , US should do the favour
Nice 👍
The smart people of India will surpass *"**#CCP_COMMUNIST_CHINA**"* in many ways .
The popularly of the app speaks volumes.
@Danifeyona-qq8qz It's because our society has moved into existing with short ATTENTION SPANS. Not healthy for critical thinking skills that are so needed and that have been lost on the generation age 30 and under (maybe even younger). Lastly, China is not a friend of the United States of America! They are collecting and tracking ALL of your cell phone data! Unfortunately, we are too, but at least it's OUR government. 😮🫤
@@Danifeyona-qq8qzshitty app. Should be banned
CCP will not sell TikTok to US. The world will knew the Data they spied to all users 😂😂😂
Google apple the govt they already know what they need to know from people.
to exhaust all legal options, you'll need $billions...Not worth it.
Then pack up & get lost!!!
Of course, cannot succumb to legal robbery.
Shoe chew is sniffing glue if he thinks he can bully the USA government…..lol…
They don’t want to sell it cause their secrets will be found out !!!
Who would sell their trade secrets, unless people are S T U P I D.
@@pcpc1289👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Marry: Are you real stupid or pretending stupid ???
It's better to lose 350 million possible consumer than to lose 7.6 billion.
the government cares more about an app than its own people how funny.
This is old NEWS. Why FirstPost do not first post?
Too busy promoting *Modi* .
...should be renamed last post.😂
In China, non of the google apps works. So this is fair for US to do !
But usa has been exporting DEMOCRACY throughout the world ???
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tit for tat 😂@@Muhr-u-Souleiman
China has banned all US apps or put strict conditions in China , US should do the favour
@@Muhr-u-Souleiman WTF does that have do with anything? Are you high?
@@VinyZikss he's a wumao that had to avoid the ccp's firewall, illegally, to come crawl at the feet of the ccp in public
lol Two Capitalist Nations battling each other! lol
The USA has no guts to shut it down
What the hell are you talking about lol
The people are demanding for it to be shut down!! The government must listen
Doesn't matter, there are hundreds of tiktok clones. Noticably RUclips & Instagram falls in the same category
I would just shut it down. There are energing markets. There is no way I'm giving anyone my intellectual property. And he's from Singapore not China.
😂😂and its parent company bytedance wont change if they shifts to Singapore
He is from China not Singapore, internally. He can always find another job.
all the intellectual property was stolen from the West... including all the technological, design and ofc all the movie material and music. 100 % stolen.
9 months and bye Tik Tok
Shutting down TikTok in the US is the wisest choice. Let the WH
deals with the UNHAPPY 170 MILLION users. Relocate to eastern Eu
or in one of the African countries maybe Mali, Burkina Faso or Niger with
no western jurisdiction. Could turn out to be a Win Win decision.
Those poorer nations don't have much time to waste on pointless videos. They need to work for money and food.
Lol what happens if other countries also start to ban fb insta and whats app😂
India should demand the same for google, facebook, twitter.
Sell its india holdings to indian companies so that indians own atleast 51%.
Not sell to adani or adani, but to retail shareholders in nse.
why? Because some pathetic wumaos are butt-hurt about ti-for-tat?
Excellent post
no. And if india moves against Western companies for no reasons, then we should stop investing there.
@@schloops8473 investment in India is not a choice or option for u guys.
It's urgent necessity for American companies for these reasons::
1. Lure of the big market.
2. Only way to prevent india's rise is to get control over the social media, and hence control elections.
3. To prevent the birth of Indian versions of big tech, which can one day take over the world.
GOOD THANK YOU
China has banned all US apps or put strict conditions in China , US should do the favour
Tik tok I never use it at all.
Rather than selling the company, Wait.....What??!?! 😂LOL...😂🤣 he didn't program the software....
Close it down 🥳
The problem with shutting down tiktok is what's left. A monopoly that is FB who owns Insta a WhatsApp. Too much control from 1 company. For those who uses tiktok know well that many posts that contained revealing information on what has happening around the world was being banned by Insta whilst tiktok allowed it. So we may celebrate tiktok removal but what's left is very concerning
you got twitter. no more tiktok garbage and thots, though they will migrate to OF
Is Facebook behind lobbying? Just wondering...
Surely YES !!!
Facebook is banned in china so all the pathetic wumaos can pound sand
Yes
After Xi Pooh snubbed Zucker for so long, I wouldn't doubt it.
Tiktok has a global reach. Closing the US market for him is not a huge loss.
Actually it is
oh yah, losing the US and EU market followed by plenty more on top of the Indian market is nothing... LOL!!!
You don't get it then. US is their biggest market. How can you lose India market and you want to lose US market. They don't want to give Africa the full package.
And yet they are going to appeal. What does that mean?
@@RUclipsWatcher264 that means wumaos are fos
Wait wait so you guys saying Tiktok is a Chinese Company? But the CEO said it is already a Singapore Company and China has no internal decision making control of Tiktok.
yet, Chinese government won't allow the sell. LOL
Sgutshut down. Don't sell. Pride is more important. Stand up to the bully and robbber.
yes, please, shut down. Then shut down all the other chinese apps, all of which are just chinese military apps.
Content creators in the US are gon' flock to other countries if this actually happens. Gotta keep making bread 😁
Shut it down then.
Where is your main export estate DEMOCRACY then ???
What you have is not DEMOCRACY but purely HYPOCRACY !!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And EU will ban TikTok too.
As if TikTok is relevant 😂😂
you are right. Shouldn't stop with tiktok... wechat is just as bad. Ban all chiense apps
The G7 is a US puppet. What is the foreign policy of Europe or Japan? Nothing
Elon musk can by TikTok, same as Twitter. Coincidence ? 🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😅
That's his Identity, selling it at gunpoint it's madness
Bye bye then. We don’t care. Sell it or shut it down 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Why not allow Tiktok in China too?
I gree no ban
So American dying for it?why west your money on it.
Don’t give excuses to Ban Tik Tok. America cannot compete ? Unbelievable.
Allow Tiktok in China!!! Don't give excuses.
The US is like the Soviet Union. What freedom?
More like China? Allow Tiktok in China!!!
😂
I am glad, and I don’t even use TikTok. I would have expected a talented creator to choose the path they chose.
Never used it
Never will miss it
Good the American users have options they can use something else.
Only if you want to subscribe to US propaganda
@@dukeloo well they won't be getting propaganda from China and that is great.
@@dukeloo They are american, so that's normal. Pretty dumb if they allow CCP idiotic propaganda to go rampant.
Land of freedom at work😂😂
awww wumao is unhappy? Please cry more. Never stop crying!!!
Allow Tiktok in China!! Let them watch those idiotic videos too!
Please it should be banned in Africa too .. I see no use with tgat app... Absolutely useless
but how would the ccp steal all your personal data and use it with it's AI (based on stolen technology) against you then?
American users can use VPN to watch TikTok.
To sell it would be a double-win for the Vultures. Why do so? Let the greedy money-crazy handle the people's wrath.
the problem is that it would show all the lies and crimes of the ccp so they can't sell it
More like the kid's wrath.
Allow Tiktok in China!! Let them watch those idiotic videos too!
