Comments section on TikTok is already unavailable. I think shutdown has started.
Heard from some friends that Oracle began preparing server shutdown last night. Seems like they're implementing now.
The most retarded country in the history of time! Perhaps this is why they are also the "most innovative" whatever that meant precisely anyway.

As the government considers extending the temporary two-year policy that allows migrant laborers to make up 30 percent of the full-time domestic workforce at shipyards, Korean workers are demanding a rollback of the quota to the previous 20 percent.
However, the demand is drawing backlash from labor activists supporting migrant workers, as well as from shipbuilders who are likely to face an increasing need to hire more workers, particularly with the expectation of cooperation with the incoming U.S. government on the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) of naval vessels.[...]"
