Comment on ByteDance prefers TikTok shutdown in US if legal options fail, sources say
Eyck_of_denesle@lemmy.zip 8 months agoWhy would a tech company sell their product to another competitor in such a big landscape like US? It’s quite very much because of money.

Well for one, because if they don’t then they will get precisely 0 money. If it is indeed about the money then we would absolutely expect them to sell no? Otherwise… There’s no money

0 money from us market. They still have a big market outside US. Why would they sabotage it by giving an advantage to a competitor. No money is better than negative money.

While they would no longer be competing in the US market, any ‘competitor’ would have to do the work of gaining billions of customers in other countries, that are already entrenched into Tik Tok user space. I think that worry is kinda moot if you’re TT leadership.
