No matter how much military power we have, if the people are hungry and we have no financial circulation, economic growth, and national production, we will not endure.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ โ€“ TikTok and the U.S. Department of Justice reached a deal to settle for $400 million dollars a Biden-era suit filed in 2024 for violating children's online privacy laws.

The settlement allows TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance, to be cleared of any wrongdoing and won't undergo future litigation.

This is the second big win for TikTok under the second Trump administration, following a divest-or-ban law passed and upheld by the Supreme Court that was avoided by signing a U.S. joint venture, allowing the app to continue operations in the country.
