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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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
That's ByteDance's revenues (the parent company). TikTok is its own subsidiary that can't operate in China
Oh interesting
Do we not really know revenue being generated that is directly attributable to Tik Tok?
This was in fact brought up by Republicans questioning the CEO of TikTok. They asked him why (or said it was unfair that) the Chinese version of TikTok shows stuff like science, math, and limit children's usage of the app but the American one shows only mind numbing content lol (some of which he defined as pro Hamas, anti American content)
He should've said, "content is created by the user, in line with government regulations; the greater the calibre of the user base and the government, the greater the calibre of the content".
It'd be unlikely that Tiktok shares this detailed of financials to us. I'd imagine that Google data above got leaked from a random employee, they have a ton of analytics open to all workers
