The House of Representatives ░░░░░░░░ moving forward with a ░░░░░░░░ that could ban the ░░░░░░░░ media site tick tock ░░░░░░░░ it does not cut ░░░░░░░░ with it s Chinese ░░░░░░░░ company A bipartisan group ░░░░░░░░ lawmakers say that the ░░░░░░░░ poses a national security ░░░░░░░░ but opponents say banning ░░░░░░░░ app would violate tick ░░░░░░░░ users freedom of expression ░░░░░░░░ passed tick tock would ░░░░░░░░ have to be sold ░░░░░░░░ six months or be ░░░░░░░░ in the U s ░░░░░░░░ bill is scheduled to ░░░░░░░░ voted on tomorrow where ░░░░░░░░ is expected to pass ░░░░░░░░ would then head to ░░░░░░░░ Senate so the move ░░░░░░░░ being done because of ░░░░░░░░ about data security and ░░░░░░░░ influence and social media ░░░░░░░░ Dan fleischman joins us ░░░░░░░░ with more hi Dad ░░░░░░░░ Joining us Can we ░░░░░░░░ talk about the reason ░░░░░░░░ this band This alleged ░░░░░░░░ of having tick tock ░░░░░░░░ the United States when ░░░░░░░░ s own by China ░░░░░░░░ the concerned honesty is ░░░░░░░░ data right with by ░░░░░░░░ in the parent company ░░░░░░░░ so much access to ░░░░░░░░ over a hundred and ░░░░░░░░ million Americans That s ░░░░░░░░ the concern is The ░░░░░░░░ is is that the ░░░░░░░░ of speech It s ░░░░░░░░ tock They are you ░░░░░░░░ decline if few years ░░░░░░░░ so they stopped the ░░░░░░░░ the last time they ░░░░░░░░ to ban this like ░░░░░░░░ s really going to ░░░░░░░░ here I think it ░░░░░░░░ going to pass tomorrow ░░░░░░░░ with had a flip ░░░░░░░░ right last time Biden ░░░░░░░░ it because Trump one ░░░░░░░░ the this time by ░░░░░░░░ months into Trump s ░░░░░░░░ an overturned It so ░░░░░░░░ interesting to see what ░░░░░░░░ happen tomorrow Yeah I ░░░░░░░░ there are some concerns ░░░░░░░░ some congressional members that ░░░░░░░░ messages might be sent ░░░░░░░░ tick tock to kind ░░░░░░░░ maybe Sway the election ░░░░░░░░ way the other I ░░░░░░░░ maybe they might be ░░░░░░░░ or misleading and all ░░░░░░░░ a sudden Chinese involved ░░░░░░░░ who we have for ░░░░░░░░ So what s interesting ░░░░░░░░ the algorithm can t ░░░░░░░░ that right If take ░░░░░░░░ parent company by dance ░░░░░░░░ they want to showcase ░░░░░░░░ the world That Trump ░░░░░░░░ good or Biden is ░░░░░░░░ or Trump as bad ░░░░░░░░ by vendors back technically ░░░░░░░░ algorithm could showcase the ░░░░░░░░ that they want to ░░░░░░░░ the photos they want ░░░░░░░░ go viral or get ░░░░░░░░ views and they can ░░░░░░░░ that reach which is ░░░░░░░░ throttling they can throttle ░░░░░░░░ the reach of the ░░░░░░░░ that don t want ░░░░░░░░ get bidding and so ░░░░░░░░ s an interesting dynamic ░░░░░░░░ someone like China can ░░░░░░░░ what hundred fifty million ░░░░░░░░ are going to see ░░░░░░░░ is conflict That is ░░░░░░░░ concern for us as ░░░░░░░░ However a lot of ░░░░░░░░ accounts lot of individual ░░░░░░░░ are celebrities Athletes Etc ░░░░░░░░ can t have a ░░░░░░░░ audience of their own ░░░░░░░░ necessarily throttled by the ░░░░░░░░ company So it sounds ░░░░░░░░ it s going to ░░░░░░░░ at least in the ░░░░░░░░ and it sounds like ░░░░░░░░ the that the Senate ░░░░░░░░ t quite as much ░░░░░░░░ a slam Dunk are ░░░░░░░░ you hearing otherwise Is ░░░░░░░░ what you re hearing ░░░░░░░░ think it ll pass ░░░░░░░░ Yeah so few days ░░░░░░░░ obviously a pass with ░░░░░░░░ decision which I m ░░░░░░░░ about tomorrow I think ░░░░░░░░ s going to pass ░░░░░░░░ probably with a unanimous ░░░░░░░░ again However when it ░░░░░░░░ the Senate there s ░░░░░░░░ lot of other factors ░░░░░░░░ come into play This ░░░░░░░░ a multi billion dollar ░░░░░░░░ If you really think ░░░░░░░░ it tick tock of ░░░░░░░░ dance That s when ░░░░░░░░ largest Privately held companies ░░░░░░░░ the planet A big ░░░░░░░░ advertisers influencers creators kids ░░░░░░░░ and everyone to between ░░░░░░░░ re enjoying tick tock ░░░░░░░░ s really long other ░░░░░░░░ out of sight of ░░░░░░░░ Zuckerberg I gotcha Instagram ░░░░░░░░ to make us question ░░░░░░░░ here Let s say ░░░░░░░░ passes What does bite ░░░░░░░░ a dude Do they ░░░░░░░░ vast Or do we ░░░░░░░░ don t have tick ░░░░░░░░ and if they do ░░░░░░░░ do we need to ░░░░░░░░ concerned that maybe they ░░░░░░░░ still have some influence ░░░░░░░░ so they re really ░░░░░░░░ option Is they can ░░░░░░░░ go away right Six ░░░░░░░░ can t go away ░░░░░░░░ s I m not ░░░░░░░░ hundred billion dollar company ░░░░░░░░ can t let it ░░░░░░░░ away I and the ░░░░░░░░ doesn t really want ░░░░░░░░ go away and commerce ░░░░░░░░ t wanted to go ░░░░░░░░ However they could sell ░░░░░░░░ to someone in America ░░░░░░░░ to Facebook but to ░░░░░░░░ in American a large ░░░░░░░░ Maybe someone that s ░░░░░░░░ a large agency or ░░░░░░░░ business or private equity ░░░░░░░░ they can buy it ░░░░░░░░ divest and then us ░░░░░░░░ users We won t ░░░░░░░░ anything different We re ░░░░░░░░ to have to leave ░░░░░░░░ there I mean I ░░░░░░░░ the love The other ░░░░░░░░ is ok the bill ░░░░░░░░ it becomes law and ░░░░░░░░ by dance doesn t ░░░░░░░░ vast and they just ░░░░░░░░ it going throughout the ░░░░░░░░ except in the United ░░░░░░░░ I just I just ░░░░░░░░ t see that playing ░░░░░░░░ bit of a platform ░░░░░░░░ good to sudan We ░░░░░░░░ it thanks so much ░░░░░░░░ for all the insight
