I read it as; “Setting the stage for U.S. losers to use access Sunday.”

Have u ever used Vine back in the day ? It’s a lot like that.

It’s just scrolling through a bunch of videos clips, and the feed is based on your preference.

I think TikTok will go dark tomorrow, but it will be back up within 3 months.

You can probably get a VPN and just keep using it.

I don’t get the point in VPNs.

Cant your ISP still track what U do, even if it’s through a VPN ?

17

are they banning it all together like even using it ? or just stopping people from being able to make a living off it or uploading?

They can see you’re connected to the VPN, but not where you come out or what you’re doing. On the other end people only see where you came off the VPN network, not where your traffic originated including which country.

I feel mixed about this. I briefly tried or used TikTok and didn’t really see the point of it.
