TikTok and Twitter are starting to talk about a possible combination, WSJ reports

It's unclear what a Twitter-TikTok deal could look like, how much it could cost, or how Twitter could pay for it. The WSJ pointed out that Twitter's market cap is about $29 billion, while Microsoft's exceeds $1.6 trillion.

"Because it is much smaller, Twitter has reasoned that it would be unlikely to face the same level of antitrust scrutiny as Microsoft or other potential bidders, said people familiar with the discussions," Wells and Lombardo wrote.

Li Feifei has received order from the CCP

Twittok

FOOLS can't see the trees for the forest. Old data is old data and it's Manipulative extortion intentions will change dramatically soon.

Censoring Twitter wants to own TikTok? Like to see Twitter get knocked down a few notches.

No

I didn't have to end the Vine.

I don't think tik-tok still have time to switch to another marriage.

Nothing to do.

Twitter killed Vine w/o a care in the world... they will kill Tik Tok as well ☹️

😣 Don’t hesitate to give up Twitter

It should be blocked. Let Twitter develop the product organically.

ترامب قوي قوي

aka it wont be twitter

This is how some kids in tiktok trolling your political campaign, and it resulting the apps company change their ownership status due to national banning threat. Tiktok gen-z troll is a real national threat 😂

the VCs are probably trying to bluff to raise the price from microsoft. bill gates said the deal is bad so maybe microsoft dont even want it

its a bluff bytedance is not allowed to own equity in the deal per the order its an all cash deal and twitter is unprofitable no way twitter can do this deal

WallStJesus Sticks gonna run monday ! $TWTR

There is a Chinese lady named Ms. Li in Twitter excusictiv board.

WallStJesus Can't afford it.

I officially will not get any sleep tomorrow night. This is going to be the best Monday of my life unless Ding 2 or Ding 1 start speaking before I can trade it. (Jack is Ding 1, and Ned is Ding 2). Soon as one of those idiots speak, the stock will drop back from this fake pump.

Twitter already owns Vine and is famous for buying things and then killing them. Like Periscope. This should blow the stock out of the water on Monday though. Epic selling/trading opportunity. I am a genius for holding Twitter today. Unlike most days. $TWTR

So what? They can kill it like they did Vine?

That would be the final straw for me to delete this shitty app forever.

Hey askin for help is anyone willing to donate a $1 to my sister, nephew & I, I lost both my jobs due to COVID I filed for unemployment but waitin for the benefit and we dont have any food & bills comin up if you can help we would be super grateful Venmo or Cashapp MattMartins147

WallStJesus Everything is planned in advance with this global bullshit. Nothing is a surprise or by accident.

What about zoom app? It's Chinese app

WallStJesus Let Twitter first fix its own security breaches! 😂

There is no way this deal gets approved

Twiktok

Please Twitter, just do us all a favor and reconsider. Don't do this. There's a national security issues because they are located in China, which has a totalitarian government that sees America as its enemy.

Just imagine Twitter has almighty algorithms that touch upon 700M Chinese citizens; a national security violation from Chinese gov.

LAVAoption How true is this over the weekend? Twitter doesn’t have money to buy tik tok

Please Twitter, DO NOT DO THIS.

Microsoft is buying both tik tol and Twitter

Oh, boy! Maybe it'll end like last time, with jack sticking an ice pick in Vine's neck. Hmm... Twitter TikTok History Repeats?!
