Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
It's still unclear to me exactly what the deal is here.
So it -sounds- like they're only selling US operations and will retain a global app version and operations which are under the ownership and control of non-US ownership but there will be a brand new app which people have to move to which will have some version of the algorithm.
I guess I'm curious then if the algorithm is being licensed to them or if they're buying it outright and global tiktok will rent it back and this might give CIA ghouls direct control of that to influence the global version of tiktok or what is going on there. Just how independent and separate is say Tiktok in France or Russia or Vietnam going to be from this new US control? Does this mean kicking out the zionist ghouls from the new global structure and sending them over to the US one or do they stay there censoring pro-Palestinian content?
It does seem like the intent is to create a siloed American TikTok. Conservative media mogules know it's easier to control the narrative when you cut off outside perspectives.
I read somewhere that the US app must develop its own domestic algorithm
