Did the USG force TikTok to sell to a US based company? Or did TikTok choose to sell under pressure? I know it's a matter of degree's here, but TikTok still has a very real choice.
While the executive ban would have forced TikTok out of the US market, how effective would that have actually been?
What if TikTok had just called the bluff on the executive ban?
- ab_testing 6y agoThe problem with calling a bluff is that if that bluff comes true, your valuation just plummets from $30-50B to zero in an instant.
- elliekelly 6y ago> What if TikTok had just called the bluff on the executive ban? I’ve wondered this, too. I think TikTok has a strong argument for why the Administration shouldn’t/can’t be doing what they’re doing in forcing a sale. But, of course, TikTok’s whole argument kind of falls apart if they’ve actually done what the President has accused them of doing. Purely speculation but I suspect they might have a pretty strong incentive not to take this to a judge.
