- Former Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick apparently wants to buy TikTok. But whoever buys it probably won't be getting the algorithm with it. So it'll be a worthless video app, just like Vine and Snap before it.

I'm optimistic hearing Bobby Kotick buying tiktok, because as with every other company he's ever owned he'll drive it into the ground and nothing of value will be lost.
hopefully without a sexual misconduct scandal this time.
That's an interesting way of looking at it.
Yes. Great site for him to own. It's already set up for the creepy shit he apparently likes to get upto. Wonder if he like kiddies. Isn't that place full of that or is that only WHATSAPP. F.BOOK ETC
one of the few instances where we need that kind of destructive power for a greater good XD
Was TikTok ran into the ground already?
I hate that 90 billion was just signed away and no one is talking about it. Its absolutely maddening to know all our money is going overseas with nothing left for us here in America. We cant even pay our own bills here at home and their just giving our money away.
$90 billion is nothing to the US government. You want to know what's REALLY eating up our money is our military budget! $800+ billion dollars go into our armed forces every year! America's priorities have been strictly overseas since approximately 1950. And yes, we can all thank Russia for that distraction.
they be do the for years send overseas not just money weapons . cars you can find this in old news . .
That’s why they added it to the bill. They knew it would distract them from their real agenda.
There is . Thats what many are protesting for, they don’t want our money sent out of our countires for wat
Most of that money isn't cash, but stuff: weapons, vehicles, loans for arms and so on.
So it is not giving money away, it's investing and most of the weapons are made by US companies anyway.
If you want to talk about losing money, think about all the mega churches not being taxed, or privet jets or megacorps.
Hell, the Pentagon loses trillions as if it's nothing.
So, don't worry about one package or two, there are way bigger fish to fry.
PS: If the US did not sign off on this, their overseas partners would really begin to doubt their (the USA) commitment as a partner.
And if ya don't play ball, someone else will.
Influence costs money, deal with it.
Actually banning TikTok would be a more dignified end than this.
Another app would rise to give the social media addicts their fix. The problem is not the app itself, but the narcissism and attention addiction.
@@mirceazaharia2094Nah America is just pissed there’s an app that allows more free speech than there controlled repressive American apps. “You can’t insult Xi Jing Ping on tiktok though” Yeah but you can freely discuss American politics and who controls them without censorship, which is way more than what is allowed on American appa
Bobby Kotick buying TikTok is like Emperor Palpatine and the Borg teaming up to take over the galaxy.
I would like to see the lattermost actually.
Ahh yes, the Death Star... a technological terror....
Buddy... that's no moon... that's a BORG SPHERE!
That Borg queen was kind of lame... Replace her with Palpatine.
@@redmage777 Well, if you watched Picard. She nearly destroyed Earth. Her plan was diabolical. Infecting those around the ages of 18 to 25. All with the use of Changelings and Transporters. End up basically controlling all of Starfleet and actually destroyed Earth Space Dock. And this is the OG Borg Queen. You know. The one that Janeway pissed off, Picard Bitchslapped, and did it again for good measure.
But hey. You have your opinion. Still, have to admit. Was Palpatine levels of diabolical. Cause Palpatine not only took over the Republic but also destroyed the Jedi Order through rather cunning planning and undermining.
"Everyone's talking about the TikTok ban component, not the massive funding to other countries"
Precisely why they did that.
Exactly
Smoke screan yeah, can send massive money over seas but can't pay veterans.
@@zuzoscorner
Veterans is now a bad word?
@@zuzoscorner
Is it?
@@Raximus3000 fixed my bad
Billionaire: I'll give you $100 billion for TikTok.
TikTok: Okay, but it doesn't come with the algorithm
Billionaire: In that case, I'll give you $14.95.
There's also rumors going around of Bytedance not wanting to sell and being okay with a TikTok ban in the US. Who knows what's going to happen.
no fking way... lol. Easily one of the most reviled CEOs in history will instill integrity and faith in TikTok.
No he won't. He'll probably just destroy it, like he's destroyed everything else he's ever touched... and maybe that's all according to plan...
Oh ew, oh hell no. I promise, it will get worse. This dude runs everything he owns run into the ground.
That's probably the US government's plan. Don't have to ban something that's already dead, after all.
"Algorithm" as in all the servers they've been data mining and collecting from users for a certain country overseas.
And how they can and have put the thumb on the scales to achieve specific goals.
Yeah, but it’s completely fine when your own G does the same exact thing to its own citizens.
Tik-Tok's divestiture makes a good diversion from the other items in that bill.
Well considering Bobby Kotick shares a religion with Israelis it all makes sense.
That's why they did this at the time that they did;it's a distraction. 🤨👍
People pay more attention to this bread and circus than the erosion of beauty standards and the shift in society.
Hey man Circus Maximus,keep
the plebs distracted and happy,so they can't unite and rise up against you. 🤨
on the surface this sounds heavily like some kind of onion article but .... this is the reality we are now living in.
At first i was like
"Oh no, he'll ruin it 😵"
Then i realized
"Yey! He'll ruin it! 🤩"
for the last year I keep getting yt recommended videos of news articles that are 7+ months old and it seems locked on that date, throwing them at me so often I recognize them on sight now.
What happened seven months ago? There's other places to go.
People might hate the idea of Bobby Kotick owning TikTok, but to be honest, I don't see how its possible for him to make the platform any worse than it already is.
In that case, let Bobby Psykotick have it.
Oh I’m sure he’ll find a way.
Don't say that they always find a way to make something worse😮
Well, the only way it could be worse. It runs 99% ads and content creators are replaced with Disney-style influencers. To which there are like 50 and they get all the exposure and anyone that dares challenge that is banned.
But hey, what do I know? It ain't like this shit isn't happen on CZcams. Heh...heh...heh.......heh...........heh......................................
Pay per view
Banning TikTok is NOT government overreach. It is reciprocity for all the Chinese arbitrary restrictions on foreign companies and the forced technology transfer.
FB, Twitter, google, Instagram, and even tiktok are banned in China... and I mean "404 server not found" banned. And yet China chucks a big stink when the US plans to ban Tiktok?
That's the "wolf warrior" diplomacy for you.
It is.. the gov should have made a bill saying no data mining and brokers.
American companies are more dangerous to Americans than tiktok.
@@npcimknot958 incorrect. Fearmonger about the right thing: China carefully studies the algorithm used on westerners in order to better implement censorship of their own people on Douyin. Plus TikTok has been caught diminishing a great deal of subjects that are very common on American platforms such as Instagram. The studies have already been made, people just need to become aware. It's not a proper "free speech" platform.
@@npcimknot958 That's nonsensical.
For starters you ignore the serious national security issues created by TikTok. Which is what got this started in the first place. That with it's state ownership effectively render a 1A argument out the window. States by *definition* do NOT have "rights", they have duties. One of those duties is providing a defense against foreign psyops and data mining.
Second, American data mining IS an issue, but it is a separate issue, that must be dealt with on its own.
Finally, given your obvious TikTok addiction and willingness to extend *more* constitutional protection to an active enemy of the US tells me that you would be using the same arguments used for the TikTok ban to argue for banning firearms and privacy.
You're a hypocrite plain and simple
It's overreach. It's why they only came down on Cambridge Analytica and FB when it was the REPUBES who might have won an election.
This shit is so damned rigged against you and you don't even get it. They don't give two shits about you. Muh CHINA MUH CHINA.
That's not even useful "intelligence" and they know this.
They just want Merikuh spied on or whatever by them alone. See also Cuckerberg and ZIONTube paying them fistfulls hand over fist to have them do this too.
Without the algorithm, will effectively mean that whoever buys it will be reliant on the Chinese company for licensing the algorithm. They are likely trying to create a situation where the terms will be so bad that no one will buy the company, then use the lack of a buyer as a reason to get a permanent junction on the ban.
The Chinese aren't gonna sell their Weapon.
Honestly it’s smart. Cause everyone knows they want the algorithm.
They are trying to, to their favorite sockpuppet CEO.
any smart Tik Tok creators likely starting to mirror their content on other platforms as a safety net. when the first mention of a possible ban was on the table years ago regardless of it's likelihood.
This is a poison pill - the law remains, which gives the executive the power to wiggle around meanings to ban dissent.
TikTok is persecuted because of their hands-off approach to moderation, which is outside the reach of Israel / CIA
Horse crap. TikTok is a good little go-yim in regards to censorship. It allows all depraved crap on there and censors truth speakers ruthlessly.
TikTok needs to be wiped from existence.
Another app would rise to give the social media addicts their fix. The problem is not the app itself, but the narcissism and attention addiction.
@@mirceazaharia2094 And the addictive nature of social media apps themselves. They're designed to addict.
@@mirceazaharia2094Parents need to stop giving kids smartphones.
Hell, I hate the idea of TikTok in general to get sold to avoid a ban. I just want the app banned.
oh wow. that sounds like it could get even worse....
I remember years ago when Democrats were running around telling young people not to vote for Trump because he was going to take Tiktok away from them.
Trump: I'm gonna ban TikTok. Media: No! Biden: I want to do the same thing. Media: **cricket noises** 🦗
Bobby wants Sam to use AI to reverse engineer the Algorithm.
The devil himself trying to buy tiktok. Makes sense.
Whatever happens, TicTok needs to end.
It's making kids dumb and leading them into stange subjects.
Wait, India bans tiktok, yet we're still using it. And now the usa bans tikitok and it's becoming a ruckus? Am I reading this correctly?
Yes. That is correct.
also Russia banned Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook. But Kneon won't tell you about it
Im getting old news videos occasionally. Not as much in the past at least. Could be that sometimes I throw the algorithm off when I try to search for old videos, although they are not news videos. CZcams also has a habit of throwing you recommended videos if you just looked at 1 one video. CZcams is also getting to the point that, while you might have alot of videos to choose from, you kind of don't want to watch them. Kind of like cable. Then again CZcams wants to become the new cable.
I hope it succeeds, maybe then people will post more often on Rumble. Some are daily but some are four months between posts. That's very annoying.
I feel much better. 😊 You brought back the music 🎵 at the beginning! Thanks, Kneon! 👍
I want Walmart to buy it.
The poetry of that would be spectacular.
That wouldn't be very good Walmart's actually not a very good as a company anymore either
@@Dashiell777 Sure, Dashiell....but i am talking about the poetry and symmetry of it all. It would be beautiful in a very bizarre and distorted way.
Buying tiktok without the algorithm is like buying a product...without the product, just the box.
I thought I was wierd to see a bunch of really old videos in my recommendations... glad I'm not crazy lol
KFC quit using 11 herbs ans spices decades ago. After the Colonel sold the restaurant, they immediately changed the recipe to make it cheaper.
US ban = can't download the app anymore.
China ban = 404: server not found.
4:31 to be honest.. that’s why CZcams got big.. anyone could start.. with a crappy cam and mic.. CZcams wasn’t suppose to be this commercial
Isn't it about to be banned in the United States?
Been seeing more older vids recommended but I still see new stuff.
CZcams's recommend has been near useless for a long time now. I've gone so far as to use a RSS feed to manage my subscriptions.... Being able to use tags and categories to sort what i'm in the mood for was a massive improvement.
Yeah Billionaires. Waste your money on Tik Tok. You Tube has already taken over that space. Not to mention products from Elon Musk. Waste those cash away.
I don’t think people realize how big TikTok is compare CZcams..
@@npcimknot958 There are more fake views in Tik Tok than any social media platform because it is financed by the Chinese Communist Party. Singapore is an ally of the CCP.
well we already had one who waste money on twitter :D
Byte Dance is going to sell the company and use the algorithm to create a new social media platform
last I knew for a foreign company to operate in China they have to partner with a Chinese company. but I'm not sure if the U.S. has a similar rule or was trying to create one with this law maybe.
There's blood in the water now. I heard a story about a CZcamsr who is also on Instagram who found one of their reels exploded in popularity with likes, so much to the point where this person no longer wants to be a CZcamsr. I think Instagram is creating fake likes for certain individuals in order to bring them over to specifically their platform. It's going to be interesting to watch all of this drama play out.
if they sell it without the algorithm basically that would kill tiktok not that would be a big loss
Kneon, I don't get ANY notifications to new videos. To anyone. Ever. That's why I have your CZcams home page (and the homepages of the other channels I listen to) on separate tabs in my phones Chrome as well as bookmarked on my phone and laptop. I haven't been able to find a setting I can change to get them either.
So Satan is looking to buy Hell
Yeah, I'm getting recommendations for videos that came out 10 or more years ago, I was getting recommendations for Clownfish videos from years ago a while back but not recently.
Yes! The intro is back!
11:23 😂😂😂no one is going back to Facebook
"You will make videos, and you will get nothing, and you will be miserable and hyper productive"
- Bobby K. on the new Tik Tok monetization policy, parallel to his videogame developer policies at EA, probably
America would be better off without that Algorithim (which is probably why it exists).
I don't know who Bobby Kot Tik is.
The last person you expect to buy Tik Tok
They sell tiktok but not the algorithm. But then they use the algorithm to create tiktok 2.0 and spend some of the money they receive to advertise it heavily so that it becomes just as big. Ingenious.
Jarvis, look up early life history
YES PLEASE! Let him ruin it with microtransactions
I don’t trust the home page I open my sub tab and click all.
They were both made for each other.
He would personally manage the new 8mm genre
Space daddy just ran a poll on X asking if he should bring back Vines.
JFC....so a corporation's 1A rights are more important than an individuals? I wish the supreme court would handle that argument, but i think they failed said corporations are individuals. we are fucked.
It feels like the endgame of the Tiktok community.
Honestly the government made the bill where it is targeting companies from adversarial nations, and listed the ones it targets, Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. They would have to actually make new bills and get them passed. Plus tiktok is banned in china and they have their own version. So them banning tiktok here, I mean, the nation it is from bans it, so, yeah.
Has TickTock overtaken alchohol as a contribution to Darwin Awards yet?
They don't have to sell the app. They could keep running it everywhere else around the world and wait out the congress.
Low key not wrong. Consider no TikTok would cut America from the rest of the world significantly and people from America.- which most toxic trends and pl,it is come from.
Perfect Bobby kotick will destroy tik tok with poor business decisions, company misconduct and mircotransactions
That would be hilarious to watch.
the Subscription page on CZcams still seems to work by showing the latest content.
TIKTOK ain’t worth shit
Why are his kind so desperate to buy TikTok?
Can't handle dissent?
This would be sooooo awesome!
Hostley the sooner Tiktok crashes the better.
I've been seeing super old videos from not only Clownfish but other channels I follow or have followed, with weird adjacent videos being recommended as well. I thought this was due to me attempting to tailor my feed with "don't recommend this channel again" and such right-click options on videos. Hmm
My thoughts on the Tik Tok ban from my 37 year old perspective:
Imagine the unspeakable evil this will unleash.....the younger generation will have to have face-to-face interactions with their peers......which might lead to a domino effect of them forming meaningful and lifelong friendships and memories, they'll have to.....can't believe I'm about to type these words.......play outside and get dirty and have actual experiences......and, and they won't have the government or insufferable influencers telling them how to think or brainwashing them with propaganda.....
The horror.......the unspeakable, unfathomable horror........
All sarcasm aside, social media is cancer. The kids will be better off without it.
Another app will arise to fulfill customer demand for this sort of shallow, destructive, addictive content. It's a legal dr-ug, it's selling like hot cakes. You can bet the farm on a TikTok replacement or competitor being just around the corner, waiting to swoop in and dominate the market.
The problem is not the app itself, but the narcissism and attention addiction.
I guess it all depends on how "sticky" TikTok is without the original algorithm. There's a huge user base, which is clearly all that the buyer is getting, but will they stick around and complain that it's not as good as it used to be, or will they go to another platform?
There's not much there apart from a name and an algorithm.
the only positive news about Bobby Kotick he has a reverse midas touch he makes things bad and him having tiktok is recipe for glorious content.
he's the right man to own it..
It's a dual-edged sword. It is a free-speech haven and a place where the most asinine dance crazes from the last decade started. I don't see myself using the app anytime soon.
The thing is TikTok’s algorithm is what they all want.
The algorithm probably has information in it that the current owner doesn't want to be made public. Such as how it can promote videos with particular political views to reshape the political views of its users.
Not 7 year old videos but I did get hit by your Harry Potter videos from a year ago😂 I was like what in the hell
Soon he'll be Bobby Kotick-tok 😂
Now we just need him to buy out Epic Games so Fortnite csn finally die and people can get back to playing basically any other game instead.
Good. I am ok with that algorithm dying.
ah yes bobby kotick im pretty sure hell make another Bill Cosby Suite Secretly
The algorithm that is illegal in China…
Hmmm a Crabby patty sounds good right about now.
Wait, so he could be Bobby KoTiktok
The US is only 10% of tiktoks audiance who would sell there company just to keep that small amount? Also this could end up biting the US on there rearend when other countries start demading US companies sell themselves to operate in there countries.
Nobody needs Bobby Kotick. He should just retire in peace already.
I'm glad that I don't have tik tok anymore.
Yeah, that's not going to happen.
How's he still around after all that blizzard nonsense? 🤣
Banning TikTok is going to be a monkeys paw wish
That’s Popeyes 11 erbs and spices.
If that's not a reason to ban it I don't know what is lol.
Lol, now I wanna see Bobby Boy do some cringe as fk Tiktok dances lmao
I keep hearing that Elon might bring vine back🤔
Those are great news 😂😂😂
