Funny how the decline of American hegemony over social media coincides with Americans arguing social media should be nation-specific.

I bet the menial tasks are the most fun parts of the job.

My point is they don't even need to do that. If people cant get paid there is no ecosystem of content. Plus why would TikTok themselves care about this after they leave the American market.

What will happen to the creators that make a living on TikTok...

Unclear what your conspiracy is, it is a fact you can get around a government ban with a VPN. It just doesn't solve the problem at hand.

Creators can't get paid, advertisers can't advertise, the whole ecosystem dies. Sure you can still access the app with a VPN but that's just 4chan with extra steps.

If the creators can't make money they will stop using it.

What a trip you are on. You can't be in war with the country that produces all the stuff you have in your house.

Does it spew Chinese propaganda though? Have you even used TikTok?

"you don't get Nancy Pelosi and Marjorie Taylor Greene on the same side unless there is some serious fire"

All you need to convince American politicians of anything is jingling keys and cash. Plus MTG opposed the original TikTok bill, they only voted in favor when it was packed together with sending money for Israel.

>A spin to a US company is not enough. It needs to cease operating in the US because there’s no surety that even with a spin data and sharing won’t get back to ByteDance China.

At this level of paranoia you may as well ban Facebook and other social media as there is no guarantee their data is not getting intercepted by China.

Weak argument for something everyone already knew. Nice you work at openAI, I guess.

In their minds these are all measures to counter the "China-Russia-Iran" block.

Giving something away on "Buy Nothing" seems like the same amount of work as selling the thing to me (except with no money exchange).

That would be very nice. My suspicion is that a certain amount of work from the former owner, or from someone who is very knowledgeable about that type of object, is required to explain the value of the item to a potential buyer. Somehow the objects themselves are not the limiting factor (trash is full of good stuff that mostly stay there, because there is no one to do this work).

It could work if the item was originally bought on Amazon and one could just point to the original listing, though.

This type of software is often abused by people to spy on their partners...

The results of his collaboration with Hardy (the approximations for the partition function and the circle method) make it clear he knew well what he was doing. Nobody was doing anything similar at the time.
