going forward I think they’re going to
continue with their description of this
as being somehow a ban when it’s really
not um it’s this it’s regulation it’s
akin to calling a speed limit a driving
ban no it’s the condition under which a
company is allowed to operate in the
United States and here the condition is
you can’t be owned or controlled by a
foreign adversary and as you know there
are foreign threshold foreign ownership
limits that apply to radio stations
newspapers uh TV stations and we are
just merely applying that principle and
updating it for the 21st century to
social media um I don’t know how uh bite
dance is going to proceed I hope that
they are constructive and that they use
this time to sell Tik Tock uh monetize
their investment and allow the platform
to continue operating Under New
Management
