    They’re not going to sell though. The US only makes up a single-digit % of their users.

      The USA is the biggest single market

            Then you agree that they’re not going to sell? What does being the largest single market have to do with this? Fucking make a point, dude.

            Then you have no point? They’re not going to sell their money machine because a tiny fraction of it went away.

                  Build your own inferences off of what someone has said. Chasing them down for clarity or elaboration wastes words. Just fill in your best guess, mention it, and move on. They can correct if they suddenly care.

      Do you have a source for that?

      This seems to claim the most users are from the U.S.

      China doesn’t use the same product. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1299807/number-of-monthly-unique-tiktok-users/

        Your source is fine 👍

        Yours says that ~90% of their users are not from the US.

        Despite the US being Tiktoks largest single-country user base they still only make up a sliver of their monthly-active users.

          So just over 4% of the worlds population is making up 10% of the usage. I suppose the owners shouldn’t care about that sliver of the users. They should care more about the smaller slivers, got it.

            Tiktok is one of the largest social media apps on earth, they’re not selling it over a sliver. Why does it matter how much bigger the sliver is than the other ones? Are you stupid?

      “TikTok” is an American Company. Their owners, ByteDance, also own a nearly identical product in china called 抖音 (Douyin). The Chinese version is much more closely operated by the military, their offices are literally military owned buildings and lots.

      How much of their ad revenue comes from America though?
