I assume the US government wants to force a sale to a US tech company, no? Who would presumably profit from said successful app. Why not just outright ban it here? By kill I just mean make unusable. But you knew that, silly.

Iran might not be invading Israel anytime soon but they sure arent “trending towards peace” like you claim. You’re wrong about this one, and your anger betrays you here. It might shock you to learn that even at your age, you can still learn something, too. At least I know I’m uninformed and look for the truth instead of just spouting off bullshit with nothing to back it up.
Iran literally just sent drones into Israel. You haven’t been paying attention.
If you don’t think Israel “that interesting or important” to the US government, you haven’t been paying attention. full stop. This isn’t about Palestine, its always been about Israel. They send way too much money to us politicians, including the one in the white house, for it to not matter “in the grand scheme”. AIPAC money alone should be enough to convince you.
Why not just kill the app then instead of asking for divestment? Why do they still need it?
The Tik Tok ban is about keeping big tech in the hands of the USA. Are my account stats better for you?
No this post actually is Hamas. Please tell Israel quickly
Capitalism works! It breeds innovation like this! good luck getting non consensual ai porn in your socialist government
I got this yesterday, as well. There’s no way this could hold up legally, right? Like my 7 year old could easily just click through that, no way this is a legally binding contract to forfeit jury rights and right to sue.
…right?
Same, just cancelled today, as well. I don’t buy nearly enough stuff on Amazon anymore to justify the free shipping, the prime video app is fine enough, but if I have to pay more for HDR/surround, well the line has to be drawn somewhere.
The tech bros are convincing stupid people it is real money though. Just like they always have, whether it’s this or something else.
I mean okay but in 5-10 years these are going to be those older cars.
“oh no, there’s girls showing their bodies on my gaming app, they’re taking viewers away from my 7 person stream!!!”
I mean, people are doing that. It’s just that it’d be a hell of a lot cheaper to program an AI to be creative than to pay actual creative people.
I’m not on here talking about the “change” I’m enacting by voting third party. I’m not pretending I’m doing anything except for voting for the candidate I believe in and I don’t really see why it’s such a controversial take on these boards.
Preach, brother.
I’ll exercise my right to vote for whoever I want. It’s honestly wild to have this argument with liberals every single year. The Dems don’t deserve my vote just because I don’t like the other guy and you aren’t going to shame me into voting for their guy.
It’s not wasted for me. I’ll vote for whoever I want. I don’t care if they don’t win, I understand the politics of this country, but I refuse to vote for someone I don’t agree with and who my values don’t align with. I’m not here to play a numbers game, that’s not for me to play, I just want to vote for the candidates best aligned with my views.
Nah sorry I meant “their bs” in a more general sense. “They” as in anyone equating Israel criticism to antisemitism.
Is there precedent for something like this? I’m clearly just a regular dummy but I can’t think of anything similar ever happening in this country. To me, it just seems like a bureaucratic way of strong arming a sale.
