卢比奥同志又出来给特朗普总统写信了,这是又一位站出来公开反对字节跳动和Oracle关于TIKTOK合作方案的美国参议员。
卢比奥认为,从现有报道的信息里,字节跳动和Oracle的合作方案并没有将TIKTOK的所有权进行移转,甲骨文公司也仅仅获得TIKTOK的小部分股权,只作为技术提供商掌握TIKTOK的数据,但代码和算法还在字节跳动的手中。
卢比奥的在信里面提出的要求:所有的TIKTOK美国的运营、数据、算法必须完全和字节跳动脱钩,不能和字节跳动有任何的联系。所有的部分售卖、“可信赖技术服务商”等解决方案都不行,否则就不能完全的解决美国担心的安全问题,也不能完全的解决中国政府可能的风险。
Dear Mr. President:
The potential status of Oracle as a “trusted technology provider” to ByteDance raises a number of significant concerns. According to some reports, Oracle would merely assume a management role of TikTok’s U.S. data and possibly acquire only a stake in the company's American operations. This arrangement could violate the requirements set about in the August 6, 2020 Executive Order on Addressing the Threat Posed by TikTok and would do little to satisfy the range of concerns expressed in that order.
The Executive order is a clear-eyed directive that highlights the data security, corporate espionage, and censorship hazards posed by TikTok, which is owned by the Chinese company ByteDance. Furthermore, the order prohibits any transactions between U.S. citizens and ByteDance after a 45-day deadline.
On September 13, 2020, Oracle Corp. confirmed a deal with ByteDance to become a “trusted technology provider” for TikTok’s U.S. operations. As this deal appears to fall short of a full acquisition, serious questions remain with regard to Oracle’s role in TikTok’s U.S. operations, the type of technology Oracle will be providing ByteDance, and the question of what will happen to the crucial algorithms, which make the application function. In particular, we remain opposed to any deal that would allow China-based or controlled entities to retain, control or modify the code or algorithms that operate any U.S.-based version of TikTok. We are heartened that this deal still requires government approval, and if reports indicating this proposed deal will retain links to ByteDance or other Chinese-controlled entities, we strongly urge the Administration to reject such a proposal on national security grounds.
The Trump Administration has been clear that any proposal must fully protect the data of American citizens and represents a full break with any Chinese-based corporation, which could potentially be influenced by the Chinese Communist Party. A partial sale, or trusted partnership deal, is insufficient in achieving the goals of protecting Americans and U.S. interests from the severe risks detailed in the Executive order.
Any deal between an American company and ByteDance must ensure that TikTok’s U.S. operations, data, and algorithms are entirely outside the control of ByteDance or any Chinese-state directed actors, including any entity that can be compelled by Chinese law to turn over or access U.S. consumer data. As reported, the proposed partnership agreement between Oracle and TikTok leaves significant unresolved national security issues, and we expect the Administration to keep Congress fully informed as you evaluate this potential agreement.
We appreciate your attention to this critical matter and look forward to your response.
Sincerely
校长在上一篇 👉 甲骨文和字节跳动的方案,懂王会批么?里提到过,
如果甲骨文和字节跳动提交的方案无法解决股权的问题、无法解决公司治理决策的问题,无法解决数据完全由甲骨文控制不留下技术漏洞的问题的话,懂王大概率是不会批准这个方案的。
那么可能的结果呢?
1、回到和微软交易的路子上,全部卖;
2、和甲骨文的合作方案满足上述的几个要件;
3、TIKTOK在美被禁;
4、美国法院大发神威,制止特朗普第一个总统行政令的生效,继续在CFIUS机制下谈判,这可能可以给字节跳动带来更多的和CFIUS进行沟通交流的时间;
5、财政部认可字节跳动和甲骨文的方案,向特朗普推荐,特朗普同意或者不同意该合作方案;
6、财政部不认可字节跳动和甲骨文方案,提出要求字节跳动仍然需要进行全部售卖TIKTOK。
在现在这个情况下,一个各利益相关方都要照顾考虑到的方案,可能并不可行。
懂王会怎么决策呢?
