    Trump has allowed it to continue for now but it is now heavily censored


    A search from me in the UK: Screenshot_20250123_200615_com_zhiliaoapp_musically_SearchResultActivity.jpg


    The same search when I use a VPN to change my location to America:

    And if I try to share a video highlighting this with all of my "followers" I get this:

    Censorship is alive and well in the US of A.
    Oh by the way, before trumps inauguration you could search that phrase in America and get results

    As I understand it, it is up for sale and Trump wants Musk to buy it and give a 50% share to the USA.

    Dont think trump could have stopped it since the supreme Court made its ruling ? In either way, if trump wants 50% to government now and in future, I reckon I'd choose the Chinese government to spy on me instead :D
