    foreign man

    Why „foreign man”? Why not „Capitalist”? Or „Megacorporation”?

    Foreign people are not the only ones who are fucking you over.

      In this specific case, the man fucking them over is banned because it’s foreign. The position of domestic man fucking them over is not vacant so they only need to find a replacement for the position of foreign man fucking them over.

              No.

              Many companies in the western world will not freely give your information to law enforcement and will even actively fight it. We saw that with apple, we saw that with signal and specifically in germany, we had some other smaller profile cases that have fought law enforcement.

              In China, companies are forced to give the government free access to all of its information without any subpoena or anything needed. Which is why many western companies can’t do business in china themselves without having a Chinese partner company that handles it for them (Blizzard needed NetEase, for example)

                Apple?? You used apple as an example? Apple that finally settled the lawsuit where siri recorded conversations and they sent them off to third parties? Comical.

                  My point was not that apple is a protector of your data, obviously they’re not. No large corporation is. The entire ecosystem of google and facebook would not work without data.

                  My point was that corporations in the west actually have a chance of fighting against subpoenas and other ways the government might force them to hand out user data, whereas china will probably just make the CEO disappear mysteriously if they don’t comply immediately.

                    Western corporations literally rely on the government and the military to keep themselves afloat and in favour. Their “fighting back” is like the fakest “no I don’t want it” from a child looking a the coolest Lego set. They are dogs on a leash and will not bite the feeding hand, even if they have a leash of their own for the feeding hand.
