Title: Oracle Wins TikTok Deal, Beats Microsoft

Oracle Wins TikTok Deal, Beats Microsoft

  • Oracle Corp. has edged out rival Microsoft Corp.
    in negotiations over the U.S. operations of
    TikTok. Oracle, one of Donald Trumps favorite
    companies, won the competition after ByteDance,
    TikTok's Chinese owner, rejected the rival bid of
    Microsoft.

3
  • Now comes the interesting part. The Trump
    administration can still reject ByteDance's
    proposed deal. This would mean TikTok will get
    shut down and ByteDance will get nothing.

4
  • In a statement, Microsoft said we would have made
    significant changes to ensure the service met the
    highest standards for security, privacy, online
    safety, and combating misinformation.The company
    added we look forward to seeing how the service
    evolves in these important areas.

5
  • All in all, Microsoft gave a message to everyone
    that we wanted to change TikTok to actually make
    it safe and ByteDance said no.

6
  • The trusted partner status of Oracle could mean
    some code audits but it will be hard to stop
    ByteDance from smuggling in some tracking malware
    if it wants to as long as Oracle isnt writing
    the code. Now comes the problem - Oracle wont be
    handling moderation or rewriting the TikTok
    algorithm. This means that anyone who has any
    concerns about TikTok before should not be less
    concerned now.
