Rams through major bribery to kill TikTok and try to force a sell to Facebook.

Immediately sets up a Threads account.

Tik Tak Toe.

Meta just pays enough.

With what?

Facebook has been death rattling for the better part of a decade.

The metaverse failed.

Oh shit... the Oculus.

Cheaper means higher volume means spy-ie-er.

So that's how they could afford that NEARLY UNANIMOUS bill.

To be fair, I have a vive and it is just as much of a data breach.

Facebook is the 3rd most visited website. Instagram (which is also owned by them) is the 4th most visited site. Oculus is and has been the best selling vr system by a lot. As much as we would like it not to be true, the reality is that facebook is extremely far from death rattling

WhatsApp is the world's most widely used messenger. FB Messenger (which is now its own product for whatever reason) is also extremely successful.
