    why would you care about a far away government collecting intelligence about you over the one that can (and will) actually hurt you?

    Both of you are dangerous in truth. We don’t trust anyone. (⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠>⁠⌐⁠■⁠-⁠■ Why do you think we use FOSS?

    • i use foss because i like the idea of it (its basically cyber leftism), as well as to hide from western intelligence, since i have the misfortune of living in there. why are YOU using it?

      unlike western nations, china is a a dictatorship of the proletariat, aka a peoples state. you will only be targered, if you are some kind of rightist. i happen to support the targeting of such people, to the point that i believe the prc isnt doing nearly enough in this regard, allowing elements like deng xiaoping to rise through the ranks. cuba and korea are much more consequent in this regard.

        why are YOU using it?

        Freedom, Privacy, Transparency, Security, The Right to study, modify and distribute, etc. etc. etc.

        …you will only be targered, if you are some kind of rightist. i happen to support the targeting of such people…

        Targeting or persecuting individuals solely for holding dissenting political views is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes and a violation of fundamental human rights.
