Manchester United have announced that Marc Skinner has penned a new contract to remain as head coach until June 2027, with the option of an extra year.

On Tuesday, some parents lost the ability to track the locations of their children using a T-Mobile tracking device and app and instead were shown the exact locations of random other children around the country, 404 Media has learned.T-Mobile sells a small GPS tracker for parents called SyncUP, which they can use to track the locations of young children who dont have cell phones yet. Jenna, a parent who uses SyncUP to keep track of her three-year-old and six-year-old children, logged in Tuesday and instead of seeing if her kids had left school yet, was shown the exact, real-time locations of eight random children around the country, but not the locations of her own kids. 404 Media agreed to use a pseudonym for Jenna to protect the privacy of her kids.Im not comfortable giving my six-year-old a phone, but he takes a school bus and I just want to be able to see where he is in real time, Jenna said. I had put a 500 meter boundary around his school, so I get an alert when hes leaving.Jenna sent 404 Media a series of screenshots that show her logged into the app, as well as the locations of children located in other states. In the screenshots, the address-level location of the children are available, as is their name and the last time the location was updated. In many cases, the location updated time said just now or one minute ago. It is clear the tracked people are children because their profile pictures show images of young kids wearing backpacks, and many of the locations shown are schools around the country.As a mother, this is super alarming to me, and I raised flags right away [with T-Mobile] and nobody took me seriously there, Jenna said. I was probably shown more than eight children. I would log in and I couldnt see my children but I could see a kid in California. I refreshed and then I had no trackers, and then I refreshed again and would see a different child.Jenna called T-Mobile support April 1 and shared part of the audio with 404 Media. In the audio, a T-Mobile employee said they filed a ticket but had no information about what happened. We are now aware of the problem and were trying to find a way to fix the problem, they say. Ive asked what we can do to see your kids SyncUp trackers because you cant see your own kids trackers but somebody elses. Well just need to wait for a little bit.Jenna also emailed T-Mobile and asked what happened but has not heard back. A request for comment was acknowledged by T-Mobile but it did not immediately provide one.Jenna is not alone. On Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook, parents say that they were also shown the locations of random people instead of their children or partners. T-Mobile also offers a device called SyncUp DRIVE, which is a dedicated car tracking device. In a Reddit thread called SyncUp sharing locations of other users, several posters said that they were being shown other peoples locations on their SyncUp DRIVE. Never have I ever seen this, one post says. I went to check on a vehicle location and someone else's car is on my account. I closed it and checked again. A new person's car shows up. Nowhere does it show the devices on our account and it just pulling other cars and placing them there. The more I play with this, the more it seems to be a serious issue with TMO. There is no account hack or anything else. Every time I open the app, I get a different person's vehicle.Another poster said that the app keeps randomly adding and removing cars that arent my own. A third said same thing happening to me. Random cars, random locations.One Redditor told 404 Media I could see other people's vehicles listed and get the info on each. The vehicles listed changed every time I checked the app. I reached out to tforce on Twitter and was told they would escalate the issue. Shortly after the app started correctly only showing my vehicles.Yall need to figure out your systems because I should not be able to see other peoples children on my syncup locations and not be able to see MY OWN CHILD, one Twitter user said. Im getting locations for kids idk from different states but cant get my sons location. Another person on Twitter wrote I have 3 kids with watches. No visibility to them today though T-Life app. However, another person could see one of my children. They called the principal at her school to let her know. I spoke with this person and found out she had access to 20 people.What happened with SyncUp is reminiscent of a bug that happened with Ubiquiti home surveillance cameras in December 2023, when some users logged into their apps and were being shown live footage from other peoples cameras.An inherent risk with any type of app that allows users to track or spy on their kids or spouse is that once this data exists it can be leaked or hacked by bad actors. For years, weve reported on this exact thing happening, including a case in 2018 where an app that sells spyware to parents left the pictures of hundreds of monitored children online.T-Mobile announced last month that some of its older SyncUp DRIVE devices would lose many features. Jenna told 404 Media that this morning she was again correctly showed the locations of her children.

More than a month after Kelly Clarkson left Sapphics and straight women alike in shambles, the singer-turned-talk show host is finally explaining the wink people couldnt stop talking about.On Wednesdays episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, guest Whitney Cummings playfully took over hosting duties when she grilled Clarkson on her drool-worthy rendition of The Outfield's Your Love, which had lesbians weak in the knees and straight women questioning their sexuality. In the Kellyoke moment that went viral on TikTok back in February, Clarkson sings the lyrics, You know I like my girls a little bit older, and offers the audience a flirty wink. If you somehow missed the moment, we suggest checking it out pronto! Dont worry, well wait.@nomadd.7That wink though. #kellyclarkson #fyp #trendingvideoTaking over Clarksons role on the show, Cummings pointed out just how earth-shattering her rendition of the song was to women on social media, Do you know that your cover of Lose Your Love has broken the internet?When Clarkson admits she found out it blew up from her shows musical director.Blew up? No, no women are leaving their husbands, Cummings announced to a cheering audience.So I heard its because of the wink, Clarkson said while playfully winking at the comedian.Dont wink at me Kelly! She just winked at me. Im not strong enough! Cummings responded before explaining the viral moment to the audience by saying, She winks at the camera like a home-wrecker!Clarkson said she started adding winks into performances to be cute and playful with the audience so she started more and more. So now I incorporate like a wink here and there. But I happened to do it on a line that it was on purpose. It was cute, she explained.It was a cute line and if I was a lesbian, I would shoot for an older woman, Im just saying, Clarkson said, giving sapphics everywhere hope.

In whats quickly becoming one of the most alarming digital privacy failures of the year, a series of LGBTQ+, fetish, and sugar dating apps have been exposed for leaking troves of sensitive user data and the worst breach yet might be an app called Gay Daddy.Touted on the App Store as a private and anonymous space for gay and bisexual men over 40, Gay Daddy: 40+ Date & Chat was found by Cybernews researchers to be leaking over 50,000 user profiles and more than 124,000 private messages, including locations, names, HIV status, relationship details, and explicit photos. The database was so unprotected that anyone with a little technical savvy could snoop through users most intimate content without restriction.Users expect the app to be discreet, but it is completely the opposite, Aras Nazarovas, a Cybernews security researcher, said in the April 2 report. The leak stemmed from hardcoded credentials in the apps code and a misconfigured Firebase database a back-end tool developers use to manage things like logins and chat features. Gay Daddy also leaked its cloud storage bucket, authentication keys, and other sensitive endpoints, potentially giving attackers long-term access to its users' data.The apps developer, Surendra Kumar, did not respond to Cybernews request for comment, though the leaking database has since been taken offline. Still, the damage may be done especially for queer users in countries where being gay can mean harassment, arrest, or worse.This data leak compromises app users security, allowing threat actors to read private messages and obtain contact lists and location data, said Nazarovas. Not only does this expose individuals to cyber threats, but also to risks of financial, psychological, and even physical harm, particularly given the prevailing stigmas surrounding homosexuality in certain countries. And Gay Daddy wasnt alone. Cybernews also revealed on April 1 that apps like BDSM People, CHICA, TRANSLOVE, PINK, and BRISH many owned by a single developer, Mobile Apps Developers Limited (MAD) were all found leaking private user photos due to similarly shoddy coding practices. In total, more than 1.5 million explicit images were exposed, many of which were shared in private chats or used for profile verification.While none of the leaks directly exposed names or emails, experts warn that open-source intelligence tools like reverse image searches make it possible to identify individuals raising the risk of blackmail, harassment, and outing.As Nazarovas put it to Metro, Images accessed by bad actors could have been used for blackmail and intimidation. Finding out that these images were leaked would likely cause distress, trust issues, as well as other harm to the users mental health.With LGBTQ+ users already vulnerable to targeted attacks, the implications of such a sweeping breach are chilling. At a time when queer lives are increasingly politicized and policed, privacy should not be optional.

Elon Musk speaks at a town hall Sunday, March 30, 2025, in Green Bay, Wis. (AP Photo/Jeffrey Phelps)2025-04-02T17:19:59Z WASHINGTON (AP) DOGEs days appear to be numbered.Elon Musk recently suggested that he will be done with his work in the near future. President Donald Trump told reporters this week that at some point, hes going to be going back to running his companies. As far as the Department of Government Efficiency, Trump said it will end.All of that talk was before Musk faced a setback Tuesday in Wisconsin, where voters rejected his choice for a state Supreme Court candidate despite more than $21 million in personal donations and his campaign appearance over the weekend. There are more problems for the billionaire entrepreneur at Tesla, his electric automaker, which saw a 13% drop in sales in the first three months of the year.The White House has not disclosed any clear timeline for closing down DOGE, and the government cost-cutting organization was never supposed to become a permanent fixture in Washington. But it could be reaching a conclusion faster than anticipated. DOGE was originally intended to operate until July 4, 2026. Now there are signs that it already is winding down. DOGE employees have been shifted to various federal agencies, which are supposed to take the lead on cutting costs. Government-wide layoffs are underway to accomplish some of the goals laid out by Musk and Trump. We think probably over the next two or three months, well be pretty much satisfied with the people that are working hard and want to be members of the administration, Trump said last week. The potential end of DOGE does not mean Trump will stop shaking up Washington. But it appears the administrations efforts will be entering a new phase that is less focused on Musk, whose chain saw-wielding work as a presidential adviser made him a political lightning rod.DOGE was initially envisioned as an independent advisory panel, with Musk sharing leadership with Vivek Ramaswamy, a biotech entrepreneur. Ramaswamy dropped out and is running for Ohio governor, and DOGE became part of the government. It was stocked with Musks allies, who were dispatched throughout the bureaucracy to cancel contracts, access sensitive data and push for cuts. Musk presumably has a ticking clock on his tenure. He was hired as a special government employee, which means he can only work 130 days in a 365-day time period.I think we will have accomplished most of the work required to reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars within that time frame, Musk told Bret Baier of Fox News on March 27. So far DOGE is well short of that target, according to its own calculations, which have been criticized as inflated and inaccurate. Musk did not commit to leaving the administration by any particular date, and it is unclear how the administration is tracking Musks time. On May 30, it will be 130 days since Trumps inauguration on Jan. 20.Trump told reporters on Monday in the Oval Office that Id keep him as long as I could keep him and hes a very talented guy.The Republican president was known for explosive breakups with top advisers during his first term, but anyone hoping for such a split with Musk has been disappointed. I think hes amazing, but I also think hes got a big company to run, Trump said. And so, at some point, hes going to be going back.Asked if DOGE would continue without Musk, Trump demurred. He said Cabinet officials have worked closely with Musk and may keep some of the DOGE people at their agencies.But at a certain point I think it will end, Trump said.Musks poll numbers lag behind Trumps, which Democrats believe they were able to use to their advantage in Wisconsin. Susan Crawford defeated Brad Schimel, who Musk supported, and ensured the state Supreme Courts liberal majority. In the closing days of that campaign, Musk described the race as important for the future of civilization. He struck a different tone afterward.I expected to lose, but there is value to losing a piece for a positional gain, Musk wrote on X at 3:13 a.m. CHRIS MEGERIAN Megerian covers the White House for The Associated Press. He previously wrote about the Russia investigation, climate change, law enforcement and politics in California and New Jersey. twitter mailto

The NWSL season is over for Gotham FC captain Tierna Davidson.Davidson, 26, who plays defense for Gotham FC suffered a torn ACL in her left knee during her team's match against the Houston Dash on Friday, March 28, and will be placed on the season-ending injury list, her team has announced."We are heartbroken for Tierna," said Yael Averbuch West, the general manager and head of soccer operations at Gotham FC. "Our club will do everything we can to support her through this recovery and rehabilitation process. We know she will come back stronger than ever."See on Instagram"In: Matching scars Out: my left ACL," Davidson posted on her Instagram today. "In all seriousness, I feel so fortunate to have the support of my family, teammates and club throughout this process. The beauty of life is its unpredictable nature. While I've found myself on the adverse side of this unpredictability at the moment, I know this experience will be another colorful chapter of my journey. I have no doubt this year will bring me unexpected joys despite this setback."Last year, with Davidson, Gotham FC finished third in the NWSL with 17 wins, five draws, and four losses. They lost in the league semifinals to the Washington Spirit in penalty kicks.In 65 appearances for the USWNT, she has 3 goals and seven assists, and won the 2019 Women's World Cup and a gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.See on InstagramDavidson, who recently got married to her former Stanford teammate, Alison Jahansouz, is one of the few out players currently on the U.S. National Women's Team. She recently spoke about what it feels like to represent the U.S. right now when the LGBTBQ+ community is under such heavy attack from the current presidential administration."It's always such an honor to play for this team and to represent this country, but it's kind of hard to grapple with what country am I representing right now? Like am I proud of what our country's doing and who we are?" she told The Women's Game podcast. "And in times like this I think about that more, and how this team has been able to represent out community and been able to push for rights for many different minority groups. That is something that I take with me whenever I put this jersey on is the importance of someone being able to see me in this jersey and say, 'Oh, thats someone like me, and I can do that as well.' I want people to look at our team and say 'that is representative of America,' the queerness, the people of color, the strong women, that is what our country is about, and to be able to see that representation on this team is so important."

(Jan-Michael Stump/Traverse City Record-Eagle via AP)2025-04-02T05:02:23Z Potentially deadly flash flooding, high-magnitude tornadoes and baseball-sized hail could hit parts of the Midwest and South on Wednesday as severe thunderstorms blowing eastward become supercharged, forecasters warned. There were already tornado warnings Wednesday morning near the Missouri cities of Joplin and Columbia merely the opening acts of what forecasters expect will be a more intense period of violent weather later Wednesday, as daytime heating combines with an unstable atmosphere, strong wind shear and abundant moisture streaming into the nations midsection from the Gulf.The potent storm system will bring significant, life-threatening flash flooding starting Wednesday and continuing each day through Saturday, the National Weather Service said.With more than a foot (30 centimeters) of rain possible over the next four days, the prolonged deluge is an event that happens once in a generation to once in a lifetime, the weather service said in one of its flood warnings. Historic rainfall totals and impacts are possible.The flood fears come as residents in parts of Michigan continued to dig out from a weekend ice storm. Floods could inundate towns, sweep cars awayThunderstorms with multiple rounds of heavy rain were forecast in parts of Texas, the lower Mississippi Valley and the Ohio Valley beginning midweek and lasting through Saturday. Forecasters warned the storms could track over the same areas repeatedly and produce heavy rains and dangerous flash floods capable of sweeping cars away.Rain totaling up to 15 inches (38 centimeters) was forecast over the next seven days in northeastern Arkansas, the southeast corner of Missouri, western Kentucky and southern parts of Illinois and Indiana, the weather service warned.Were potentially looking at about two months of rain in just a handful of days, Thomas Jones, a weather service meteorologist in Little Rock, Arkansas, said Monday.Parts of Arkansas, west Tennessee, western Kentucky and southern Indiana were at an especially high risk for flooding, the weather service said. Tornado seen in Kansas and more could be comingAt least one tornado was spotted Tuesday night in Kansas. Take cover now! the weather services office in Wichita warned residents on the social platform X. No injuries were reported.Another tornado touched down in the northeastern Oklahoma city of Owasso about 6:40 a.m. Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service office in Tulsa. There were no immediate reports of injuries, but the twister heavily damaged the roofs of homes and knocked down power lines, trees, fences and sheds. Tornado warnings were also issued in Missouri on Wednesday. Authorities in eastern Missouri were trying to determine whether it was a tornado that damaged buildings, overturned vehicles and tore down utility poles, tree limbs and business signs Wednesday morning in and around Nevada, Missouri. The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported that the damage shut down a portion of U.S. Route 54 in the city of about 8,300 about 95 miles (153 kilometers) south of Kansas City, Missouri.Along with tornadoes, high winds with gusts of up to 50 mph (80 kph) were also expected across large parts of the Midwest. The ominous forecast comes nearly two years to the day that an EF-3 tornado struck Little Rock, Arkansas. No one was killed, but that twister caused major destruction to neighborhoods and businesses that are still being rebuilt today.More than 90 million people are at some risk of severe weather in a huge part of the nation that stretches from Texas to Minnesota and Maine, according to the Oklahoma-based Storm Prediction Center. Strong and long-lasting tornadoes appear likely in highest-risk areaAbout 2.5 million people are in a rarely-called high-risk zone. That area most at risk of catastrophic weather on Wednesday includes parts of west Tennessee including Memphis; northeast Arkansas; the southeast corner of Missouri; and parts of western Kentucky and southern Illinois.A tornado outbreak was expected Wednesday, and multiple long-track EF3+ tornadoes, appear likely, the Storm Prediction Center said. Tornadoes of that magnitude are among the strongest on the Enhanced Fujita scale, used to rate their intensity.Hours before the storms were expected to arrive in the Memphis area and in eastern Arkansas, the National Weather Service reported peak wind gusts of 58 mph (93 kph) in Memphis and 51 mph (82 kph) in Jonesboro, Arkansas.At a slightly lower risk for severe weather on Wednesday is an area that includes Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Louisville, Kentucky, and Little Rock, Arkansas. Dallas, Detroit, Milwaukee, and Nashville, Tennessee, were also at risk. Wintry mix blasts Upper MidwestIn Michigan, crews worked to restore power after a weekend ice storm toppled trees and power poles. More than 135,000 customers in northern Michigan and 11,000 in northern Wisconsin were still without electricity Wednesday morning, according to PowerOutage.us, which tracks outages nationwide.Schools in several counties in Michigans the mitten-shaped Lower Peninsula have been closed as deputies used chain saws to clear roads and drivers lined up at gas stations. And more wintry weather was on the way: A mix of sleet and freezing rain could keep roads treacherous into Wednesday across parts of Michigan and Wisconsin, the weather service said.Heavy, wet snow also was forecast into Wednesday across the eastern Dakotas and parts of Minnesota.___Associated Press writers Sean Murphy in Oklahoma City; Isabella OMalley in Philadelphia; Ed White in Detroit; Steve Karnowski in Minneapolis; and Hallie Golden in Seattle contributed.

Almost two years to the day after legendary drag queen Heklina was found dead, her close friend and fellow queen Peaches Christ still feels traumatized by her death and the lack of answers provided by the London Metropolitan Police Department, who she has accused of homophobic bias.Peaches Christ, also known as Joshua Grannell, was the one who found Heklinas body in a flat the two were sharing together as they prepared for a two-week run of the musical parody Mommie Queerest at the Soho Theatre.While finding her friend dead has left Peaches with emotional scars for which she is still in therapy working to heal it's the lack of real answers that continues to haunt her, Peaches Christ tells PRIDE.Theres the trauma of finding her, which was it was like a horror movie and Ill spare you specific details, but it was horrific, she says. It was bad and then not to be listened to or to be communicated with by the people who are supposed to be giving you answers, who assured you that they would keep you in the loop and communicate with you. It just felt so retraumatizing and created a whole other layer of nightmare to the situation.Heklina, born Stefan Grygelko, was a beloved drag star in San Francisco whose punk aesthetic influenced a generation of drag queens. She was also the co-founder of the Trannyshack drag night at the iconic Stud bar in 1996 and helped transform Oasis into a drag and cabaret club.After years of working to keep Heklinas name in the headlines in the hopes of pressuring the police into action, investigators have finally released new information in the case, but Peaches Christ says she still doesnt have an official cause of death. She was beginning to lose hope that there would ever be progress made in the case it took the police 21 months to release CCTV footage of three unnamed men leaving Heklinas apartment building on the night of her death until a new team of five investigators traveled from London to San Francisco to get more statements.On March 17, London authorities visited Peaches Christ and dropped a bombshell about her friends death. She was told that Heklina had a lethal combination of drugs in her system when she died, but the police still refused to confirm her cause of death.The authorities reinterviewed Peaches Christ and asked for her cooperation in locating people Heklina had slept with and done drugs with who might have information that could help in their investigation. They also traveled to visit Heklinas next of kin and executor of her estate, Nancy French, to speak with her and retrieve Heklinas iPhone, which Peaches Christ alleges the police had in their possession two years ago, but never unlocked despite being told that Heklina had been setting up dates Grindr shortly before her death.Heklina had no shame about her casual sex life, its something she talked about on stage, she says. "I knew what was going on, its why I went and stayed at a hotel [on the day of her death]. I didnt want to be there while my friend was hooking up.Just a few days after the London police came to California, Peaches Christ, still determined to get more answers, was in London leading a protest against the polices alleged homophobic bias in Heklinas case. The idea of the protest was to call attention to the case of Heklina, but just as important was to create change, institutional change, so that this sort of homophobic bias wasnt brought to other cases in the future, she says.Peaches Christ has been told that drugs were found in Heklinas system and that there was no foul play, but the fact that investigators have picked up the case again and feel strongly enough about it to fly to the U.S. leads her to believe there is more to the story.If she had a lethal combination of drugs in her system like they say she did, she wonders aloud, then why not just wrap it up? Like why didnt we wrap it up immediately? You would have known that before you cremated her in 2023. So why, if thats how she died? What's going on? Why is there no death certificate?See on InstagramPeaches Christ felt from the very beginning that Heklina being part of the LGBTQ+ community and a drag queen meant that her case was never taken seriously. It took 10 months of unanswered emails and phones calls before an anonymous source from inside the Westminster morgue told her that there was a coverup taking place and that there was still disagreement over Heklinas cause of death.Stranger still, Peaches Christ alleges that in a Zoom meeting, investigators told her and French that the police officer first assigned to the case had a conscious or unconscious negative bias.So that was the point where I was like, 'Oh wow, theyre saying its homophobia,' she says.While in London for the protest to demand more action in Heklinas case, where fellow drag queens and activists marched holding signs reading, We Deserve Justice, Not Discrimination, Queer Safety Over Police Power, and End Met Police Homophobia Now, the police asked Peaches Christ to provide a new DNA sample (she previously provided one to rule her out of samples they collected from the scene) because the old one had expired. Combine that with the fact that the CCTV footage was only released after the press contacted them, and she says it started to look like negligence on the part of the Metropolitan Police.So all of this stuff is just really angering me because it does feel intentional. Its either extremely sloppy or just truly intentional negligence, Peaches Christ says, explaining that she thinks the police only started to act once they found out she is well known in the drag world.I think before they just thought I was just some trashy drag queen, who just should go away and leave them alone. And it probably was a mixture of homophobia and probably the fact that were not there, we dont live there, were all the way in California, she says.Two years ago Peaches Christ would have settled for just being provided with a cause of death, but now she wants The Met to be overhauled and homophobic bias to be weeded out so that no other loved ones have to go through what she has. She explained that in her experience, being LGBTQ+, using drugs, and having casual sex means that the cops will treat your case like it doesnt matter.My hope is that maybe we can move the dial and change their viewpoint on us institutionally so that they see us as human beings and treat us like people in the future, Peaches Christ says. My really big hope is that the terrible, terrible service that Heklina has received from these folks by us blowing it up and getting angry maybe itll change the next time they get a case like this.

A TikTok logo is shown on a phone in San Francisco, Friday, Jan. 17, 2025. (AP Photo/Jeff Chiu, File)2025-04-02T17:48:13Z WASHINGTON (AP) Amazon has put in a bid to purchase TikTok, a Trump administration official said Wednesday, in an eleventh-hour pitch as a U.S. ban on the platform is set to go into effect Saturday.The official, who was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the Amazon offer was made in a letter to Vice President JD Vance and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.The New York Times first reported on the bid.President Donald Trump on Inauguration Day gave the platform a reprieve, barreling past a law that had been upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court, which said the ban was necessary for national security.Under the law, TikToks Chinese-owned parent company ByteDance is required to sell the platform to an approved buyer or take it offline in the United States. Trump has suggested he could further extend the pause on the ban, but he has also said he expects a deal to be forged by Saturday. Amazon declined to comment. TikTok did not immediately respond to a request for comment.The existence of an Amazon bid surfaced as Trump was scheduled on Wednesday to meet with senior officials to discuss the coming deadline for a TikTok sale. Although its unclear if ByteDance plans to sell TikTok, several possible bidders have come forward in the past few months. Among the possible investors are the software company Oracle and the investment firm Blackstone. Oracle announced in 2020 that it had a 12.5% stake in TikTok Global after securing its business as the apps cloud technology provider. In January, the artificial intelligence startup Perplexity AI presented ByteDance with a merger proposal that would combine Perplexitys business with TikToks U.S. operation. Last month, the company outlined its approach to rebuilding TikTok in a blog post, arguing that it is singularly positioned to rebuild the TikTok algorithm without creating a monopoly. Any acquisition by a consortium of investors could in effect keep ByteDance in control of the algorithm, while any acquisition by a competitor would likely create a monopoly in the short form video and information space, Perplexity said in its post.The company said it would remake the TikTok algorithm and ensure that infrastructure would be developed and maintained in American data centers with American oversight, ensuring alignment with domestic privacy standards and regulations.Other potential bidders include a consortium organized by billionaire businessman Frank McCourt, which recently recruited Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian as a strategic adviser. Investors in the consortium say theyve offered ByteDance $20 billion in cash for TikToks U.S. platform. Jesse Tinsley, the founder of the payroll firm Employer.com, says he too has organized a consortium and is offering ByteDance more than $30 billion for the platform. Wyoming small business owner Reid Rasner has also announced that he offered ByteDance roughly $47.5 billion.Both the FBI and the Federal Communications Commission have warned that ByteDance could share user data such as browsing history, location and biometric identifiers with Chinas authoritarian government. TikTok said it has never done that and would not do so if asked. The U.S. government has not provided evidence of that happening. Trump has millions of followers on TikTok and has credited the trendsetting platform with helping him gain traction among young voters. During his first term, he took a more skeptical view of TikTok and issued executive orders banning dealings with ByteDance as well as the owners of the Chinese messaging app WeChat.Parvini reported from Los Angeles.
