    The regulation in question isn’t about speech; it’s about installing particular software on government-issued devices, when using that software requires leaking the user’s location & personal data to a foreign government.

      If that is the case, we need to ban Windows worldwide.

      Hmm, not a bad idea in fact, I’m in.

        What non-US regime do you suspect Microsoft of leaking personal data to?

        The US government is okay with companies leaking personal data to the US government.

              Stuxnet, the joint US and Israel project to exploit multiple zero-days found on Windows to wreak havoc on Iran’s nuclear program.

              You seem to be one of the people who think Israel gets to have nukes but not their enemies. Please admit if this is true or false.

                No, I’d prefer that fewer rather than more different parties had nukes, because it’s easier for fewer parties to agree not to use them. Would’ve been nice if the Soviets never got them, too, don’t you agree?

                  Ahh. That’s a real roundabout way of agreeing with what I said.

                  Thank you for your shame.

                  Anything to admit it’s okay for Israel and the US to work together to exploit windows vulnerabilities, which is how this discussion began.

                    To be clear, I think it’s a great idea for any humans who are capable of doing so to sabotage the ability of a country that doesn’t currently have nuclear weapons to obtain them. The fewer different parties have nuclear weapons, the less likely it is that there will be more nuclear explosions on this planet.

                    It would have been better if Israel didn’t have nuclear weapons.

                    It would have been better if the Soviet Union didn’t have nuclear weapons.
