Is this the actual message that they listed on their site? Do you have a link to where the "Learn more" button goes to?

If only the lolcows were smart enough to do that instead of going to rednote.

Not on phones. Also, not on browsers. Worked on the tor network for a while though until they blocked it.

Go-go Gadget Mexico VPN

Yes, on a phone. However mines also set to the Mexico Apple Store using PayPal as billing method [loophole] and iTunes gift cards from Mexico. [because apple sucks and won’t let me charge up with an off the shelf US gift card from 7-eleven or kwik trip but they’ll let me buy them on apple.com] They do not validate addresses whatsoever in MX.

I originally did this because of the USA VK ban, and at the time Spotify premium was only $4 a month if your phone was on the MX App Store. (Spotify is up to $6.20 or so a month, it’s still cheaper than 11.99 . And a bunch of other shit like Rosetta Stone and Grindr are still half priced so I’m not changing it back.)

Some apps aren’t in the MX store and there’s some hassles involved in it, but it comes in handy every so often when something fucking stupid like this happens. VK was the first time. TikTok is strike #2, I’ll probably leave my phone region in Mexico because it seems like the US government is going to keep doing stuff like this.

There’s no magic involved in using Mexico, other than , they’re a little more liberal on speech and other connundrums than Europe. they just stay completely out of the fray with these issues. whereas Europe behaves as badly as the USA.

It’s NOT something I would have done for TikTok, but if you’re addicted to that app, or use it to track cows here you go. To all others, may your withdrawal be long and excruciating.

Great job government! I'm sure zoomers totally wont see you as somehow even more out of touch with them than it already seemed possible.

 

[AnOminous]

Not on phones.

Phones are for homosexuals.

Lemon8, also owned by byte dance shows a similar message



Both apps and other bytedance apps are gone from the Apple App Store and Google play store reportedly.

That “red note” app is working fine.

I only downloaded all of these because the apps are getting banned over not silencing criticism of israel.

The jew fears the whiteguiltless chink.

can we please do Vine again now

 

[COME ON OUT YOU RAPIST]

What will be fun is if every other country in the world instantly bans all Amerilard social media too. Basically nuking our dominance in the only area we have left.

I don't think the rest of the world (who relies on the dollar) wants to piss off an incoming nationalist-populist president.

 

[Get the rope Macaulay!]

The VPNs arent working. Strange

 

[Neil]

lol it's a stunt to win Gen Z votes, the CEO of Tiktok/Bytedance is going to be at Trump's inauguration.

He's gonna EO the effects of a problem that he started back in 2019 and have Bytedance join the cavalcade of other multibillionaires he has in his pocket with Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos.

Do zoomers know how to use VPN

Using just normie tier (non-residential VPN) NordVPN exits in canada and china both still had the message come up in tiktok for me just now.

Videos start to play then it pauses.

My settings don’t have any GPS or local network access for tiktok so I am pretty sure it’s doing it based on either device region settings or language settings or similar.

 

[Shoresy]

It's at times like this that I am thankful I don't even use shit like TikTok or other social media. It's all just a waste of time that could be put to better use doing things like browsing Kiwifarms.

 

[Edict of Expulsion]

Ok it seems that even for android users that have set their VPN location to Singapore and uninstalled and reinstalled the apk it kind of works but all US accounts have been disabled. So a new account would be necessary.

Besides sideloading iOS users might be screwed if they can’t “log out” since you can’t uninstall and reinstall the app if it’s gone from the App Store.

Offloading keeps data on iOS and might be all risk and no reward.

 

[Sargon's wife's son]

Is it banned yet

 

[It's Little Alex Horne]

If there is any goodness and decency in the world, Trump will uphold the ban. (So he'll probably let it come back)

I have some RL friends bleating about this, but I fail to see how banning TikTok is anything but a net positive for society.

 

[LifeAlert]

It's over. RIP brainrotted zoomers. Have fun surviving Chinese social credit monitors on RedBook (because that's still more likely than one of these retards learning how to use a VPN)

The end of an era. Whatever stupidity it caused, it was still part of countless people's lives.

Phones are for homosexuals.

What, are you on the computer the whole day?
