In April 2024, President Biden signed a law that would ban TikTok in the United States unless it is sold within a year. Project Liberty, an initiative dedicated to building a better internet, is organizing a broad consortium of technologists, investors, community leaders, and creators to purchase the platform. The People’s Bid for TikTok is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for Americans to reclaim their digital identities and have a voice, choice, and stake in the future of the internet.
The People's Bid offers an innovative alternative to the challenges of today's social media. We plan to migrate TikTok to new digital infrastructure that prioritizes privacy and gives users control over their data - along with more opportunities to share in the economic value they create online. The core TikTok user experience would remain the same, but people - not corporations, governments, or algorithms - would have the agency to shape their digital experience.
The People's Bid has received broad support from leading technologists, investors, and policymakers. Many of the best minds in these fields are contributing to our vision for a safer, healthier TikTok.
A reimagined TikTok can serve as the blueprint for tomorrow’s internet.
Join The People’s Bid by adding your name to the pledge today.
