It gets bought by Steve Mnuchin as his friends, so instead of the Chinese government spying on the public and shaping opinion, a bunch of right-leaning billionaires will be spying on the public and shaping opinion. Personally, I view this as no practical change.  (Some rich, well-connected jackwagons in this side of the Pacific will probably make a lot money, though.)

I see there is great delusion here as most think that TikTok will be sold, borne out of the typical American smugness that America can always have its cake and eat it. But it won't happen in this case. I'll remind you, we, China, must agree to any divestment. We won't go along with this act of pure unadulterated American imperialism. You will not pry TikTok out of our cold dead hands. You will either back down and suffer humiliation, or ban the app and suffer the consequences with your own people.
