      probably conned bytedance or some of its investors into believing his presence would boost transaction value of the likely spinoff or sale of the site… and he’d join it—for a price.

    I see that going so, so poorly for him. He’ll pretty much have to disable comments, but I feel like he’d hate that because he loves attention.

    He successsfully got ByteDance to use US cloud providers to run their service. Specifically cloud providers whose CEOs donated to his campaign. It was smokescreen, and apparently people believed it.
