Uh, wut? Why TF would Oracle have any interest owning a social media company?
“Our business partners overwhelmingly want a short video format social site to, uh, complement our suite of backend corporate technology solutions.” - No Oracle C-level executive ever
It’s about selling user data. It’s always about selling user data. And why not diversify into that when you’re a massive corporation that is fine doing anything immoral as long as it makes them money (like all massive corporations)?
Also, Oracle already tried to buy TikTok four years ago, so of course they’ll try again with Trump in office.
Prediction: It’ll be a quick flip to a different buyer. Oracle is the first buyer to make it look ‘okay’ to the general public, before Oracle sells it to X or Meta to shore up their finances.

Hahaha! What a hoot!

I did not know they tried to buy TikTok years ago! Huh!
Today I learned.
I believe Oracle is running analytics collection for TikTok traffic in the US. There’s some weird preexisting connection between the companies though.
TikTok runs on Oracle’s cloud to have a US presence.
Wow. Something non-Oracle can be made to run on Oracle Cloud. Who’d have guessed?
Nobody is as shocked as Oracle.
Rich Asshole Ellison ran out of ways to be a dickweed to the rest of the industry he’s in. So he’s gotta branch out…
