The Instagram's REELS
Chidiebere Moses Ogbodo reports that Instagram has launched Reels, a TikTok clone: "Users can make 15-second videos inside the Instagram app using editing tools to help film different clips, which can be shared within a new tab on Instagram's public Explore page."
Chidiebere asked: "The big question now, is.. should Microsoft continue with its proposed deal with ByteDance to localize Tiktok USA base?"
Let me attempt: It does not matter. The Internet is breaking into three now: Chinese, European and U.S. internet. If that is the case, TikTok does not have to travel to America just as Facebook cannot find an audience in Beijing. Microsoft will buy TikTok USA, rename it and overtime will lose interest in it!
