Equal hardware wouldn't be portable though.

I also host all my stuff on 192.168.1.2. It's just my gaming pc with a bunch of services for piracy but it's good enough until I can build a proper server in the future.

Their port forwarding works but it's very annoying because it changes the port after each connection.

Fortunately I use a third party app that automatically updates qbittorrent with the new port.

Do they but unfortunately they are also slower. I could get max 600 Megabits per second with them. I now use proton that supports at least 2,5 gigabits

If you help TikTok in that way you would absolutely get on the government's hit list (literal or not).

It would probably be quite easy to just make a new law or revision that stops the theoretical loophole.

The question is if anyone would buy it without the algorithm and the other stuff worth money. Users by themselves aren't very useful if everyone leaves after a day.

There are probably hundreds of Chinese companies that operate in the US, why is tik tok signaled out?

Because it's an enormous company with a lot of influence on people. If they actually influence people in that way, I don't know but they could quite easily.

Personally I don't care about TikTok.

Then the EU would need some evidence of propaganda.

Why don't they just sell TikTok to a US Citizen who happens to believe TikTok should remain the same?

Who? What USA citizen is prepared to buy something for the privilege of fighting the USA government with would obviously get mad and probably block the sale if byte Dance TikTok is still involved.

I don't really follow USA politics but didn't this law pass by quite large margins? They could obviously ban toktik.

I take no stance on the psyop thing but is always selling the best way to seek profits. I say no. Unless they can sell and somehow force the buyer to operate exclusively in the USA. If not then there is still the rest of the world to profit from and selling their entire USA branch would suddenly create a new huge competitor.

These editorialised post titles are so stupid.
