Former Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt has been talking about buying TikTok since earlier this year. The long shot is getting shorter.

The article from WIRED discusses the potential future of TikTok amidst concerns over its ownership by ByteDance, a Chinese company, and the implications for data privacy and national security in the U.S. It explores the possibility of TikTok being sold to American investors, with a focus on a proposal by Frank McCourt, a former owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who has expressed interest in buying TikTok to transform it into a user-owned platform. This idea stems from broader concerns about how social media platforms manage user data and the influence of foreign entities on American digital spaces. The article outlines the complexities of such a sale, including regulatory hurdles, the valuation of TikTok, and the geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China. It also touches on the skepticism regarding whether a sale would truly address the underlying issues of data privacy and platform governance, suggesting that even under new ownership, significant changes would be needed to ensure user data protection and to alter the platform's business model.
