So what does Zuck do when Trump uses an exec order to stay the ban and pushes Republicans to reverse it?
Algorithmically quell his own cybernetic rage.
It's already back up lmfao
Yep. But this doesn't answer their question. I'm rooting for a Tik Tok CEO vs Meta CEO battle Royale at the inauguration.
Tom just sitting on the sidelines, eating popcorn.
Tom wouldn't be caught dead in the same hemisphere as either of these fucks
Tom just wanted to be friends. Why can't more people be like Tom? 😂
Trumps just gonna keep him hanging hoping he’s in the inner circle and bleeding him dry in the process.
Why does everyone think Trumps going to allow Tiktok. He doesn't like China, and Musk is going to push him to ban it so he can buy it.
ByteDance has a lot of money. Trump likes money. Trump's only leverage over ByteDance is allowing TikTok, so he'll do that in exchange for money
Zuckerberg and Meta are much more centralized in the US, which gives Trump far more options in terms of what he can offer them. Trump will give Zuckerberg something else to placate him. Probably lots of cheap H-1B labor
I haven’t seen a comment age this quickly and poorly in quite some time.
If you haven't noticed Trump says a lot of things. He's always talking out of both sides of his mouth. I'll believe it when I see it, we'll see tomorrow. Also, a delay is not overturning it.
It’s back now with a message thanking President Trump.
Which makes the whole thing so transparent considering Trump literally couldn't have done anything as he's still not president yet... The whole thing was a stunt.
Who asked for a 50% stake in the company.
You're partially right. Trump originally wanted to ban TikTok because "China."
However, the platform's influence on younger voters supposedly helped him to win the election, so he now favors it.
No surprise that Trump's personal needs are far more important than real US security.
If Zuck gives Trump more money then why would he? Probably would just allow Meta to buy it or something dumb like that.
Well I just hope they reverse the whole bill, so we can re-appropriate the tax money back we sent to aid Israel
