    “Chinese app”? I’m sensing some defensiveness here.

    Using any for profit data harvesting app has great financial incentive to negatively impact anyone, evidence based government back-doors or not.

    I’m sure there’s some lovely Chinese-made fediverse wrappers or locally hosted communities with good moderation. Idk, I don’t speak Chinese.

      You’re sensing frustration at America’s consistent sinophobia.

      Pretty sure I said:

      Explain exactly how using a Chinese app will negatively impact the average American. Don’t use vague threats, use evidence based examples.

      So far I’ve responded to about 6 people and no one’s been able to articulate any sort of tangible negative impacts, just vague threats and handwringing.
