From what I have seen of Damo both personally and just on the board in general he seems to be a really nice guy. He most likely just feels sorry for Legion. I get it,.....nothing wrong with that either. That's why I blocked legion just a few minutes ago. I don't want to let myself become angry with him and say things I shouldn't when the fact is I actually feel bad for the guy. Nuff said....

"voluntarily" if you kneeling is voluntary when I point a gun at your head and tell you to kneel or I pull the trigger then sure it "voluntarily" shut down the service. they and the US company hosting their servers faced billions in fines every day it remained operational in the US.

But hey, congratulations US government on the biggest fuckup you could have possibly created. Now half the US population who used TikTok (170 million people) is flocking to Rednote/LittleRedBook (yes, named after Maos little red book of sayings), and now apparently Douyin, China's version of TikTok is no longer restricting access to non-chinese numbers, and you can download it and scroll on through just like TikTok. So now, in a braindead effort to supposedly "protect data", you've as a result driven them to rebel against you and ironically exposed the entire younger generation to direct Chinese content on Chinese apps. All because you were mad China might be able to see which dance and cat videos they watched.

And anyone that claims to care about small business? this just fucked over countless small businesses that operated through the app and built themselves through jt.
