This seems like a premature reaction. The Trump administration has been known to anchor to extreme positions as a negotiation tactic.

Given the complexity of forced platform migrations (user data transfer, algorithm preservation, creator monetization continuity), and the technical/legal hurdles involved, I suspect we're seeing opening moves in a broader negotiation rather than a final outcome.

Let's all be patient and wait to see how this plays out before assuming users will actually have to migrate to a completely new app with new ownership.

The thing is there is a law directing that TikTok be sold or shut down. Trump has already illegally given extensions several times.
