The content on tiktok has moved far away from the music and dancing app it once was. That's probably why tiktok was indifferent to this deal.
Make sense i mean the only goal of tiktok is china data collection and propaganda so as long as people use it they won't care if it become only cooking video or kid eating grass
Lol fuck both companies
The clock app is funded by the CCP. This is not going to matter. The intimidation and indifference will continue.
Looks like "clock app" (as many call it) is shifting into the final stage of its enshittification process, if even business partnerships are being blown off. No doubt many on here will be reflexively happy about that but it's really just sad to me every time I see potential wasted in any form.
I thought Pitchfork was shuttered?
Honestly they should be with some of the music reviews they publish
By shuttered you mean fired all the journalists doing work. There's no way someone is going to let a popular domain like that not be utilized when it's owned by investment firms. It's being folded into GQ -- the quintessential mens rag.
I see… what a shame. Probably all LLM writing.
UMG does a grandstanding.
