Activision Blizzard’s ex-CEO Bobby Kotick reportedly wants to buy TikTok


According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, Bobby Kotick has expressed interest in purchasing TikTok, and approached others including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman about the idea of partnering. A new bill has left TikTok's future in the US up in the air.

Per Google's release notes for Wallet this week, the app can now pull some movie tickets and boarding passes from users Gmail inboxes automatically. This year's new sets include the Bowser Express Train, King Boo’s Haunted Mansion and Battle with Roy at Peach’s Castle. CEO RJ Scaringe said the automaker had taken more than 68,000 reservations for the SUV in less than 24 hours, suggesting a latent interest in innovative EV companies not helmed by Elon Musk.
