They are already fucked as they are technically in violation of the law. They have 5 years to fuck em for it. Trumps has said he won’t fuck em. He on y has 4 years tho.
I think they would still be open to civil liability, for services that compete with TikTok or anybody who could claim harm came from companies refusal to follow the law.
I don’t even think we need to wait that long, anybody with a product that “competes” with TikTok would have standing to sue Google, Oracle, and Apple for violating the law and causing harm to their business. The possibility of government penalties in 4 years is just the icing on the cake.

You make a good point. Trump will be out in 4 years and the new gov could possibly charge them then.
E: Trump could probably pardon them if they asked.
Gee sounds like it’s in TikToks best interest to support Trump next “election”.

That raises the question of if u can pardon someone for something they have yet to be charged with?
USA has done “preemptive strikes” and “enhanced interrogation “, I’m sure they will find a workaround.
Bit like anakin and “aggressive negotiations”
Yeah, Biden did that for Fauci and his (Biden’s) entire family before he left office.
