TikTok Poised to Triple Ad Revenue to $11.6 Billion This Year – Surpassing Twitter and Snap Combined

Google is so clever with its decision to buy Youtube

I believe at the time, Google paid a million USD to buy YouTube.

I'd say that acquisition worked out beautifully for them

...and of course YouTube is banned in China....

China never ask Google, Facebook to leave China. Never ban Google nor Facebook, Twitter.

China request was/is/will be:

1. The user content generated by Chinese should follow Chinese law.
2. The user information, such as cellphone, home address, relatives information, birthdate, social security info, all those sensitive information should NOT be handed over to CIA.
3. The user information and content should be stored in China.

Google, Facebook, Twitter want to make money in China market, they MUST obey Chinese Law, otherwise they have every right to fcuk off. And they choose to fcuk off, that's their own issue, not our Chinese concerns.

Apple, Tesla make tens of billions revenue and margin in China market, China never ban any U.S. companies which obey Chinese Law or create any trouble.


China is not a colony of any country. U.S. can do whatever you want in any other countries, none of our business.

Btw, there are numerous P0RN content and drug sellers on Twitter. This kind of information is forbidden on public platform in China. Chinese can enjoy p0rn content at home and with family, but public platform should serve the public and protect children.

You can enjoy those content and freedom. And your kids will see those harmful content freely on Twitter and many other poisonous us platform

They acquired youtube for 1.65 billion.

 

[KAL-EL]

The acquired youtube for 1.65 billion.

Really?


I thought they paid a million dollars to a kid who developed it back in the mid-2000s

I of course stand corrected if I'm wrong, but I believe I remember it happening something like that.

 

[Bengal71]

Yes, by the time they acquired it in 2006 it was already very big and popular. Do a google search on how much they paid to acquire it.

 

[mike2000 is back]

BTW...so is PDF also somehow a national security risk????

To be honest, ut seems to me like the censorship officials in China have gotten used to banning so many foreign apps/websites that they don't even care anymore to look deeper. They just ban apps now for the sake of it. They seem to be super insecure about everything and scared their authority/hold on power will be threaten by dissenting voices . However, remains to be seen if they can keep this FOREVER(which is impossible anyway.).

China is more civilized and more mature than any country in the world and they know better what can keep their country go forward in the long term. You may not agree with this, from your point of view, that's fine. But pause for a moment and look back at your own country, Imagine how your country will be in next 50 years.

When I was in the UK and young, I normally watched semi-p.rn which broadcast on Channel 5 on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights. It seems so normal. But I guess, watching too much **** killed productivity, innovation and makes countries fall behind others.

Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and China ban p.rn on public media, while Japan allows it, and their AV industry are so developed. No wonder why Japan is becoming the sick man in East Asia. Even North Korea can bully them nowadays. And if a war ever occurs between North Korea and Japan, guess which side the soldiers would be more aggressive, disciplined and brave?. The indoctrinated North Korean or the p,o,r.n-addicted Japanese soldiers?

A little bit less freedom for the long-term development of the country, that's the price worth to pay.

It's waste of time to argue with china hater and anti china western media. As long as the economy and society of china keep improving, freedom of lying western media or etc doesn't matter.

 

[Hamartia Antidote]

Regarding facebook, from all color revolutions we can see it's a tool of US government for achieving its political purposes. It deserves to be banned by all non west countries.

Well I guess we should all be thankful nobody outside of China uses any of their social media apps since it would immediately be used as a tool for color revolutions.

Or maybe it is available but just simply too difficult to use so "color revolutionists" stick with just American apps.

Isn't Tiktok Chinese social media app?

Google is so clever with its decision to buy Youtube

YouTube: share of Google net ad revenues 2023 | Statista

Is YouTube profitable for Google? YouTube's ad business revenues made up over 11 percent of the Alphabet-owned giant revenues for the last examined year.

www.statista.com

11%..not bad

Isn't Tiktok Chinese social media app?

It sure is...but apparently all those "color revolutionists" are too stupid to figure out how to leverage it. They have to sit in a corner at home shaking their fists and crying about what "could have been" if they were less inept with Chinese software.

Uh...Tiktok still working on that US server data thing since putting it on some no-name shell US company and calling themselves "compliant" isn't cutting it.

This resistance has been going on for years

[Falconless]

Youtube set the standard which was a 55/45 split. TikTok and Facebook arent even close to reaching the %.
