@DylanByers What I’ve been told is that ByteDance would own the source code and algorithms (because Douyin) and would give TikTok Global access to said technology. At that point, Oracle does the security vetting, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Where the parties seem aligned is that ByteDance’s founder Zhang Yiming is likely to serve as a member of the board of TikTok Global. But this ownership thing is still messy and seems unsettled based on the various companies’ public statements. — PolitiTweet.org

I spoke to @kierstentodt and @james_a_lewis on the TikTok deal. Todt described the confusing structure as “rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic” as Lewis told me it looked like a “sleight of hand.” Todt argues it doesn’t resolve the natsec concerns; Lewis says it “should.” — PolitiTweet.org
