TikTok deal looks like Oracle and the U.S. scored — but you can guess the real winner
1. Oracle and U.S. investors will control 80% of TikTok's U.S. operations. 2. Intellectual property of TikTok's algorithms remains with ByteDance, raising concerns. 3. China can control updates to TikTok's algorithms, risking U.S. dependence. 4. Oracle might struggle to gain timely updates due to Chinese oversight. 5. A less competitive TikTok could benefit U.S. users, especially teens.
