TikTok Outages and Censorship Claims Follow USA Takeover by Oracle and Trump Allies

#WashingtonDC, #USA
Thousands of users in the USA reported TikTok outages and censorship as a new joint venture involving Oracle and allies of Trump took control of the platform.Celebrities like Megan Stalter and Finneas O'Connell accused the new owners of suppressing content critical of ICE, while the company blamed a data center power outage for glitches.The disruption led to a massive migration to the alternative social media app UpScrolled, which climbed to the 12th spot in the Apple App Store despite facing its own server issues.
