STATEMENT FROM TIKTOK:
— TikTok Policy (@TikTokPolicy) January 19, 2025
In agreement with our service providers, TikTok is in the process of restoring service. 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 170β¦
white extinction is long overdue

What's the angle here? I mean the law is pretty clear and SCOTUS just affirmed that it's constitutional. Is it just Trump issuing an EO telling service providers to break the law?

If this unban goes through imo Congress should probably just unironically disband entirely. Not sure what their role would even be in government anymore. We could save a bunch of money by just firing all of them.

In all seriousness the total cowardice and abdication of responsibility by Congress
is what's wrong 
with America.
I never
thought 
I'd say this, but Mitt Romney was right 
when he said all the other senators are spineless kitties who just want to work out at the Senate gym, get sucked off as "Senator ___" and avoid 
taking "hard votes"
white extinction is long overdue and it should
start with the US congress.

Yeah it really is. It's been a long, long, long process though, going back several decades.
I hoped the Chevron decision would help reverse some of it but they're literally allergic to work.

But then they'd all go back to being C-levels and Senior VPs in the private sector who spend every day ruining the lives of their companies' workers with brainless shoot-from-hip initiatives that they thought of while skimming micro-news article summaries over breakfast. I'd much rather keep them contained to their posturing and infighting in Congress, where they can do the least harm.

But they're not fit for C-level jobs.

Precisely the reason those jobs would be inexplicably given to them. Clearly you've never worked for a large distributed corporation.
It must be stopped.

It's the executive branch's job to decide how to implement laws, not to decide whether to implement laws.
Or it's supposed to be at least.
I simply consider this to be absurd executive overreach.

Isn't it super easy to abuse this law though? Most things can be considered threat to national security according to the government..
What's so special about tiktok anyway? It just collects your video viewing preferences and has an algo to serve you more videos, or toks whatever
Owned by china? Half the world is hostile politically, why specifically tiktok?
From what i understand they didn't break any law.. Anyway lemme read journo slop
So a social media site..? All of them censor or amplify certain things
So why not make a law making it so any company that tries breaching your phone with software gets banned or fined?
This sounds more like a general phone problem? They are literally spy devices the government was eager to give us for cheap. They could make laws to force phone OS companies to be required to be open sourced and allow easy way of protecting user privacy?...
And if the problem is specifically what data users voluntarily give to tiktok, then that means you have an r-slured population who doesn't even consider china a threat or has zero braincells...

Yeah he's saying he won't enforce it on account of the kids thinking he's mean.
Trump is like Elon in this aspect, he literally just sought a public position to be liked by the masses. That's why he even tried to pander to Puerto Rico after all they said.

He honestly did more stuff the media just really plastered him. Harvey response was also overboard because he wanted to be seen as helping.

either Drumpf is telling TikTok how they can fall into compliance with the ruling or he is figuring out an executive order that would allow him to exempt tiktok from the ban. Ai bet uts rhe former bc the executive order could be overturned for the same reason the ban was ruled constitutional. That said the, when it comes to foreign policy issues, the president has a lot more authority that congress/courts cant as easily override vompared to domestic issues that affect US citizens on US soil. Arguably this cpuld fall into either category.

Biden wasn't going to enforce it either. At the end of the day the executive is strongest by design and aside from cucking the President by preventing impoundment it's up the the executive to actually execute based on what the other two say.

He wasn't going to enforce it because it started today, his AG isn't gonna write up fines on his last day
