Was TikTok going dark just ByteDance holding the govt over a barrel? Let them panic a bit etc and then flick the switch back on? How weird but still fascinnnnaaaaaating.

It’s a wild rollercoaster of newfound American-Chinese love in the context of the US govt TikTok ban.

Very interesting observing the TikTok refugee influx in to Xiaohongshu and the comments like “IS THIS WHAT CHINA IS REALLY LIKE?” “IS THIS THE REAL WORLD?” “WHAT ELSE HAVEN’T THE GOVT TOLD US?” lol. I’m sure it’s going to be great fodder for grad anthro projects for years to come.

Do you think the government has clocked they have just commissioned very very expensive rebranding exercises right across the public service? I’m talking oodles of money for ministries they are also asking to downsize or cutback…
