It was source of livelihood for most of them

ShenTeh:
If only people understand how powerful government is, they would be more interested in the selection/election process.

Yes, I know it's the courts, but yes, that's an arm of the government too!

Correct, people should take politics very very serious, be involved in politics and hold their governments to s. Never ever say, politics and government are not your business or say it doesn't concern you.

, the citizens are the government not the politicians.

They should create American Tok

Worst addiction is betting

Stop classified addiction, addiction of any form is bad

Yankee101:
Not only drugs and alcohol are addictive
Social media too can be very addictive
Beware

Money is involved..This people make money from TikTok ever heard of “TikTok shop ?

Most of Africa doesn't understand anything about this so called social media
USA have Facebook, WhatsApp
China have tiktok, WeChat
All these tools are used as secret tools to obtain documents
Both USA and China are working for privacy of their citizens

Emotions are fleeting. They will be forgotten as well as forget what Tik Tok is in three days. Those who make money off the app will find new profitable avenues.

Correct,

TheBreastSucker:

They should create American Tok

It wouldn't work, otherwise they would have done so.

These apps are a means of livelihood for millions.

But some politicians will simply sit down somewhere and make crazy decisions affecting the entire populace without caring.

israel90:
Can't USA develop there own for there citizens

No, it wouldn't work. They would have done so if it would.

The current ticktock is established already. And the American cannot name their version Ticktock

Fvcking hypocrite. How do you know it's booobs and arse, if you've not been watching the same videos and probably jerking-off to it. Ozuor

Glimpsetv:
A wave of emotional videos flooded social media, showing TikTok s in tears and experiencing mental breakdowns following a brief shutdown of the platform in the United States. These individuals, many of whom have dedicated significant time and effort to building their presence on TikTok, appeared devastated, reacting as though their worlds were crumbling.

The incident, which caused widespread concern among creators and s, was soon addressed by TikTok and news outlets. According to a CBS News update:

Washington — TikTok began restoring service to s in the United States following a temporary and voluntary shutdown that lasted less than a day. The company said Sunday that it was in the process of reinstating access after President-elect Donald Trump vowed to try to pause the ban by executive order on his first day in office.

In a statement, TikTok expressed gratitude for the resolution:
"We thank President Trump for providing the necessary clarity and assurance to our service providers that they will face no penalties providing TikTok to over 170 million Americans and allowing over 7 million small businesses to thrive," TikTok said in a statement. "It's a strong stand for the First Amendment and against arbitrary censorship. We will work with President Trump on a long-term solution that keeps TikTok in the United States.”

The temporary shutdown served as a stark reminder of the platform's importance to millions of s and its role in ing small businesses and content creators across the nation.

Over pampered lot's of brats

Kobicove:
Why would someone be crying because a social media platform was shut down?

Some of these Americans are always so dramatic

This mentality that lots of y'all have is the reason why we are so backwards as a race. Don't you know that there are jobs people do that requires them to be online most of the time. If you doubt it, then I believe you've never heard these Social media marketer, Social media manager in your life before. Now imagine that you do any of these jobs, you wouldn't open your stinking mouth to spit maggots.

I one time Nairaland was down, when it was eventually up again we could see the relief in many Nigerians who are on these platform, despite how toxic it could be here on Nairaland.

The Olosho industry in the US has taken a hit. No one knows for sure the cause, maybe it will resume after Trumps inauguration.

Ok, well noted, just don’t forget to reach out to me for your TikTok tools

Worst addiction is betting

Addiction is the same thing, the doing of something and its possible repercussions is first the thing. Continuous doing of an act is addiction.

Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Twitter and many others are owned by Americans but that tiktok na witch App not ordinary killer App especially among young women. That's why I seriously believe the next century belongs to China

Do I look like your father who brings forth children with stinking mouths that serve as breeding ground for maggots!

Stupid buffoon that you are, did I tell you that I don't know that people make a living through online endeavours.

virginboy1:


I agree with you.

One of my friend that earns 450k monthly is very addicted to betting, it has gotten to the stage he bets on impulse. He currently owing a debt of two million plus.. His gambling addicts has pushed him from two bedroom flats to a one room self.
Betting sucks actually

Una never see addition... Ordinary betting you are complaining. He should just reduce his staking power... Game wey go enter go enter.

If you see jonkie kolos, you go understand addiction or randy idiott without self control who is willing to sleep with a mentally deranged underage just because of no money to go to brothel.

God1000:
Trump was the one that initiated the ban years ago, now he acts like a hero. What a joke

Trump wanted it off control of Chinkos because of espionage. Don't blame him. His country's SECURITY comes first and China or you would have done the same thing

I have been waiting for content creators from mostly African nations and in particular Nigeria to address this crazy pay gap and style of tiktok against them,but I am surprised that all of them are quiet,tiktok and basically all social media apps owned by this racist vagabonds give Africans and Nigeria especially extremely low pay and yet they (Nigerian/African content creators) just accept it like the dutiful slaves that they always see themselves as and even gleefully celebrate it, chaiiiiiii,who do us like this??

Americans make good money on tiktok oga. Forget about addiction. It's even some people's only means of income.

Natbrowny:


Na set up. Trump suffers from Hero syndrome.

One of his buddies will buy the app in 3months time.

For tiktok owners. It's either they agree to sell or go dark permanently.

Must TikTok operate in US? When you design a social media App to majorly operate in US and is successful, they device means to snatch it from you so that they can use it as a tool to project their western hegemony.

If I were TikTok owners, I won't sell my app or acceed to their double standards control over the app. And I will be prepared to de-market from the US market.

Wasted generation. Their mates in china are busy with their studies, pumping out technological innovations day in; day out but these idiots want to be career sex merchants on tiktok and only fans. And they want Trump to place a ban on H1B visas.

You are right. China is already ahead in of technology and infrastructure.
