As the administration has said, the algorithm will be licensed from ByteDance. If that is indeed true, this deal is illegal and unsafe for Americans. Forget the majority-CCP controlled ownership. Forget the ByteDance board seat. The algorithm would remain in China’s hands.

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Written for: SaaS founders and operators

My mom just told me she cancelled her subscription to The Washington Post. She reads every one of my stories. It was a heartbreaking call. I understand why she did it, but I asked her to reconsider. To anyone who has cancelled or is thinking about cancelling, here’s what I said:

Usage limits are up, effective today we're: 1) Doubling Claude Code's 5-hour limits for Pro, Max, Team and seat-based Enterprise plans 2) Removing peak hours limit reduction on Claude Code for Pro and Max plans 3) Substantially raising our API rate limits for Opus models

I've heard a lot of questions about Fable's availability on subscription plans. While it will come off subscriptions after July 7th, we aim to restore Fable as a standard part of our subscriptions as soon as capacity allows, as we mentioned in our original blog post.

SpaceX policy regarding data retention. It is actually helpful for debugging issues if we can retain some amount of data, so allowing this would be appreciated, but your privacy settings are always respected.

Nvidia can sell advanced AI chips to People’s Liberation Army-linked companies, and the U.S. government gets a cut of the revenue. Microsoft can get Pentagon contracts while using PRC engineers. But Anthropic is a supply chain risk?

Yet again, @TikTokPolicy admits that its algorithm is export-controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. This is what happens when your government relations team loses the policy fight and the lawyers enter the room. You can’t hide behind political talking points anymore.
