yeah....you do realize that Trump will get more political mileage by banning TikTok than facilitating a deal right? You lose billions of dollars, reputation, no political advantage and all egg on your face. Nice going. Give your diplomats and policy makers a big round bonus.

Why is ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, even negotiating with Microsoft, Oracle and Walmart ?

It does not make any sense.

Because they had a valuation of 100 Billion last year and right now they're headed for tissue paper valuation. India (their biggest market) wiped out about 30 billion. A US ban (the biggest market by value) will pretty much fush them down the tubes. Apparently a 100 billion is worth more than the hot air of some observers.

I dont understand why a time-pass app like TikTok has M$, Oracle or (even India's Reliance) as potential buyers? and in Billions?? WTF.

Is it the "User Data"? TikTok users must similar to those who make those videos & post on TikTok. That category of users fetching 10s & 100s of Billions?

I think this mobile app valuation is another bubble like the erstwhile dotcom

So Indians think Chinese will stop using TikTok simply because indians and Americans have stopped using it?

That's not the data you're talking about. The data is that every 10 mins TikTok checks your location and sends it to chinese servers, checks what you do with other apps, what you write in messenger etc. With a complete profile of you they can charge high premium on their advertising...or hlp the chinese govt spy on you...

Are you nuts? you must be!
Tiktok's valuation is driven by Chinese consumers not useless indians that mostly uses apps for free.India is mostly useful for driving up the downloads numbers ,Tiktoks' valuation will keep rising .

*************
Good, otherwise it may set a very bad and dangerous precedent about coercive sales of technological assets. China may have one bullet now,for the future,but it will keep the nation's dignity and set the message straight.This is just one app, nothing more,in future the entire internet landscape will change.

You should ask the CCP to shut it, know their place and give in to whatever Trump is asking for. Else, they're gonna organ harvest Tiktok and nail it on a wall as an example to the world. Huawei has been severely impaired. Maybe they will get a lifeline from the americans too.

an app that is geographically limited is not very attractive

Tiktok happened because douyin blew up,not vice versa.

Quit yapping like a headless chicken.

I'm only giving friendly advice so that you avoid further humiliation. He is not the type that's gonna forgive you for this. You already riled him up with COVID. Now he's just red and wants to take Winnie the Pooh apart.
