    I have news for everyone ITT: TikTok is not leaving the US. A friend works in their North America business division, and they are fully planning to split off a satellite company that is (at least nominally) US-based and compliant with local law. They have been working on the transition for many months.

      While this may be true, this comment has strong “I have a girlfriend in a another school” vibes.

        Does it? It’s not a brag, I don’t think it’s particularly cool or interesting. It just means I heard it from the horse’s mouth and it is absolutely happening barring new legal action.

      That’s too bad, I was hoping regulatory capture would help youtube get back on its feet now that it’s a failed platform.
