    … and so by whining about natsec they can get you to support anything, as long as they don’t tell you about it?

      No, I ignore the whining and consider it may be an issue based on actual behavior, as I originally stated.

      Hence the “in this case, they might be actually telling the truth” from the original statement.

      Just because they over-use an excuse doesn’t mean that it isn’t true on the odd occasion.

      The problem is that so much crying wolf makes it more difficult to tell when it’s real.

        If this was an actual national security threat, why would they give them so long to sell? In fact, why even try to buy it? Why not just ban it immediately? Furthermore, why haven’t they implemented Biden’s executive order to stop China from buying data from Meta or Alphabet? And why haven’t they given us any proof of an actual national security threat?

        Their actual behavior betrays the truth, just like you said. It’s clear this is just national business interests and censorship.

        Stop believing in national security bullshit.

          “The app that has kids doing silly dances and is a festering piece of shit is a natsec issue”.

          Those people don’t realise just how fucking daft they sound!
