It's also very rare for me to have ever had Facebook on-screen but not fully muted. I do skim through the reels once in a while, as I am, at the end of the day, just another stupid human who finds cats and dogs actin' funny adorable, but I wouldn't miss Facebook either if it was gone. I won some prizes, have my own dog and cats who do funny stuff all the time, and was already inducted into the WWF (Words With Friends) Hall of Fame. There are no more summits to ascend.

Get banning, already, new guys.
Ban it all.
Here, too.

So it’s back. Bans here last, for the most part.

Not to start a political fight and for the record I voted for him but I think the whole Tik Tok Ban and reinstatement was a political stunt by Trump's team going into the Inauguration . In the end I have no doubt Tik Tok will be saved and purchased by a Elon Musk investment group and be kept alive in some form or fashion be it on it's own or some integration into the X platform formerly known as Twitter.

It seems foolish to think anything other than some version of what you said here.

What is difference between tik tok, instagram and YouTube as far as making video content?

So are we banning it or not?

"I may not or may do the deal. TikTok is worthless, worthless, if I don't approve it. I learned that from the people that own it. If I don't do the deal it's worth nothing, If I do the deal it's worth a trillion dollars."

"I think the U.S. should get half of TikTok... I think we would have a joint venture. The U.S. should be entitled to get half of TikTok. But if the president doesn't sign, it's worthless. We'll see what happens."
