Walmart Joins Microsoft s Pursuit of TikTok – WSJ

By Thomas A. Smith

Walmart Inc. said it has held discussions with Microsoft Corp. about partnering with the software giant in its pursuit of TikTok s U.S. operations, the latest big company to enter the chase for the popular short video-sharing app.

The Trump administration has pushed TikTok s owner, Chinese technology giant ByteDance Ltd., to sell its American operations after targeting the app over national-security concerns. Microsoft Corp., Oracle Corp. and Twitter Inc. have all been named as possible buyers of its operations in North America, Australia and New Zealand.

I hope they close the back doors to the CCP.
