  • Not just another country, but a hostile foreign country. If France owned TikTok no one would care. But to the US government, China is in the top 5 of most hostile nations and is definitely the top of hostile nations in terms of world power and reach. It’s essentially giving out a LOT of info to what they see as “the enemy”. And also it has a lot of potential use to track US government employees like diplomats and high-level military leaders. Even if those people don’t have TikTok installed, their kids might.






  • Is that accurate? I asked this question yesterday and got several responses saying the exact opposite.

    That the government would seize a property, quickly sell it, and then pay off any outstanding liens. Then whatever was left over got applied to the $464M and then the courts keep seizing, selling and paying until they achieved the full amount.

    Otherwise if you seized someone’s full collateral for a bunch of loans, they no longer have any incentive to pay those loans if they are already close to bankruptcy and there’s nothing left for the creditors to seize.

    Edit: had troubling finding an answer but this is from Tennessee and about cars. It says the government can either send the asset to lien holder or pay the lien holder

    What if the vehicle has a lien holder?

    If a lien holder is listed on the title of a seized vehicle and this lien holder files a claim, a hearing is not set. The State’s Attorney will review the case and verify the lien. An Order will then issued forfeiting the property to the seizing agency subject to the lien. This allows the vehicle to be returned to the lien holder to satisfy the lien, or for the seizing agency to keep the vehicle and pay the lien holder their respective lien.










  • This means that Samsung wants to provide meals and diet suggestions using the smart ring.

    Galaxy Ring will monitor your activity during the day, and then Samsung Food, linked to a smart Samsung fridge with AI vision, will provide diet suggestions based on calorie consumption and body mass index (BMI).

    In a real futuristic home where the Samsung oven is also linked, the appliance will apply the cooking temperature and time accordingly, and ingredients can also be delivered through the Samsung e-Food center.

    How about, Fuck No?
