    TikTok put up a banner saying that the app was unavailable until incoming President Trump can do something about it despite Biden saying he would not enforce the ban. And then when Trump said he would not enforce the ban they put up a welcome back banner thanking Trump.

    They signaled loud and clear they’re ready to play ball. They’ll get a lot behind the scenes because they kissed the ring. I could see Bytedance selling TikTok but Trump lets them continue to collect data or some shit.

      yea then trump said his requirement was selling it still. If they didn’t care about selling they would have sold months ago. They are just doing what’s done to milk a few more months of profit imo
