minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·8 months agoThis forced sale of TikTok for national security is a farce because they were already forced to move their service to the US on an American-owned hosting provider, and they have already put people with a history of aligning with “American interests” into executive positions, like CEO Shou Zi Chew and vice president Michael Beckerman.
