Okay now China just needs to not sell and then in April we can sue Google and Apple out of existence right?
No, silly! Laws exist only to punish people like you and me. They get to do what they want, because they give money to the legislators!
(I wish any of that was a joke.)
They are already fucked as they are technically in violation of the law. They have 5 years to fuck em for it. Trumps has said he won’t fuck em. He on y has 4 years tho.
You make a good point. Trump will be out in 4 years and the new gov could possibly charge them then.
E: Trump could probably pardon them if they asked.
Gee sounds like it’s in TikToks best interest to support Trump next “election”.
I think they would still be open to civil liability, for services that compete with TikTok or anybody who could claim harm came from companies refusal to follow the law.
I don’t even think we need to wait that long, anybody with a product that “competes” with TikTok would have standing to sue Google, Oracle, and Apple for violating the law and causing harm to their business. The possibility of government penalties in 4 years is just the icing on the cake.
That raises the question of if u can pardon someone for something they have yet to be charged with?
USA has done “preemptive strikes” and “enhanced interrogation “, I’m sure they will find a workaround.
Bit like anakin and “aggressive negotiations”
Yeah, Biden did that for Fauci and his (Biden’s) entire family before he left office.
But what about the children!?!?!! \s
Yourfavouriteguy made an interesting video on why TikTok was “saved”. Not sure if it’s been verified but makes sense given Trump’s proclivity for deals.
