    Is Oracle really going to host TikTok? That’s been a rumor for like two years now. Even if they do host it on their servers, what kind of administrative or moderation control are they expected to have?

      I don’t know about hosting - but the deal was being finalized a little over a month ago and it was reported that Oracle would manage the security and algorithm after the purchase of TikTok US. Or at least, they will be licensing the algorithm if they won’t own it. The new development I was unaware of is that it won’t just be Larry Ellison, but also Rupert Murdoch and Michael Dell. We truly live in hell.
