    I wonder who runs TikTok… oh here he is. Larry Ellison. Here’s a picture (he’s on the right).

    Would it surprise you if he’s a self-admitted Elon buddy?

    Oracle founder [Larry Ellison] has repeatedly said he’s “very close friends” with Elon Musk.

    Ellison has defended Musk against critics, and in 2018, Musk added him to Tesla’s board of directors.

    “I think Tesla has a lot of upside,” Ellison said at the time. “I am not sure how many people know, but I’m very close friends with Elon Musk, and I’m a big investor in Tesla.”

    While Ellison announced earlier this year that he was leaving Tesla’s board, the two men appear to have maintained their close friendship. The Oracle founder pledged $1 billion to Musk’s Twitter acquisition, and the two billionaires were texting into the early hours of the morning ahead of Musk’s decision in May to put the acquisition “temporarily on hold.”

    And he loves the thought of surveilling you.

    Suppression “fears”.

    Sounds like a big advertisement campagn to me. Have not heard this much about that waste of storage medium for a long time
