Until Musks goons he a hold of it
I don’t think he can, just due to the way it’s set up. Like, it’s not something that can be bought, and it’s not something the executive branch has any ability to unilaterally effect.
Couldn't they ban it from America? Like obv it doesn't collect data in the way tiktok does so they wouldn't have any sort of case, but I feel like they'd try to find something anyway.
That would require an act of congress, which, while not impossible, is very unlikely given the current situation. some congressional republicans are pissed at him right now, and they have an extremely slim majority, so any defections on such a vote would prevent it from passing.
