You're viewing a single thread.
DeepSeek does the same things that OpenAI does, but it's a foreign actor so OOooooOOWwwwooOOOO sCaRrRey!
Wait until they hear what data Instagram/Meta collects during use!
But they're a US company so it's ok.
Realistically what is the worst thing China is doing with your private data? Selling it? If you’re not a Chinese National, at least you don’t fall under their jurisdiction.
If you’re a U.S. citizen, with all the tech oligarchs cozying up to the current administration, I’d be a lot more concerned with Facebook/Twitter/Etc collecting your data.

Probably mapping out the extended support networks of democratic activists in Taiwan to prepare to throw them in jail after a forcible military takeover.
So democratic activists in Taiwan have extensive networks in the US?
I mean, you said it.
Extensive networks with their close ally? My pearls must be clutched!!
Networks with a foreign actor undermining national sovereignty, which financed several massacres in your country
My country? Not sure what you're talking about but I know that Taiwan deserves sovereignty. You don't? Surely you're not pro imperialism...
I meant in Taiwan but tbh throw a dart at a globe and if you don't land in the ocean there's an 80% chance the US has sponsored a massacre there.
Yep. Pretty off topic though... Thought this was a thread about a Chinese app. You know, the country that's trying to steal Taiwan, aka imperialism. Just like how the US, England, Russia etc do. It's actually wrong even if it's the authoritarian govt you're rooting for.
Y'all literally brought it up, you don't get to go "uhhh off topic much?" when you say dumb shit.
Taiwan is China, both governments agree on this as well as all other countries in the world, including the US (officially). The only disagreement is on which is the legitimate government of ALL OF CHINA.
If you think the RoC is the legitimate government of China you need to stop huffing paint or reading CNN.
The CCP is significantly more oppressive, gives zero shits about human rights or trademarks or really anyone at all. The US at least pretends to care.
Bro you can stop that narrative. The truth is out now.
The truth is out now.
What truth? Who talks like this and thinks it means something?
For the past week the people of China and the United States, as well as other countries have been comparing notes. Debunking propaganda on both sides. Realizing that much of what we've all been told for years/decades, has been lies.
I'm ootl. What debunks have come out?
For starters, that the Uyghur genocide is yet another piece of atrocity propaganda from the US. We know what a genocide looks like and how it's impossible to hide in the modern world, as Gaza showed.
Blurry satellite pictures of buildings and a German fascist swearing it for ten pages (financed by Raytheon and Lockheed-Martin) isn't proof.
If it's fake why is it censored in Chinese apps and websites?
Authoritarian governments whether they're western or not. Are no friend of the proletariat/people.
Lmao. Mehdi Hasan is an opportunist. You can check Uyghurs living in China rather than ones deliberately selected by a known ally of the US, Qatar. Extraordinary claims require proof and I haven't seen anything other than hearsay, which is the first weapon of the CIA as with Saddam's WMDs and Park Yeonmi's claims of the DPRK making people pull trains by hand lmao.
If you have any evidence that isn't "I swear they do it", I'll be waiting. Though not holding my breath.
The US is in the process of deporting all its migrants and threatening invasions on half the world.
I get that gringos don't want to own up to their complicity by inaction but you oughta stop pontificating about how other governments are worse. Unless they're called Israel, they weren't before and they sure as fuck aren't now.
Get fucked, racist.
Lmaooo hurting gringos feelings is being racist? Y'all have had concentration camps for longer than you've been without them, you know their fucking addresses and they're still there.
Do forgive me for throwing y'all's opinions on racism in the dustbin.
You cannot be a serious leftist and pretend to be offended by a little "anti-white" rhetoric.
Based on what? The US imprisons more people, kills more people, tortures more people. The only way to argue that China is more oppressive is basically to start with the assumption they are and then work backwards to justify it.
I listed a handful of reasons above, of which no one has denied or refuted. Just downvoted.
Actually you didn't. You listed a bunch of accusations against China (which were refuted, you just ignored that), but you didn't even try to explain how that's more oppressive than the USA. Even if all your accusations were true, the US is still more oppressive.
I see you are sticking with the pack here and going with generic denial and ignoring my arguments rather than actually refuting them.
Lol, everyone can see that both I and others have refuted your arguments. You pretending you can't see that only makes you look like a sore loser.
now we've got another refutopolis warrior.
What does that even mean?
That doesn't affect people not in china or not bordering china.
that's pure ideology.
Strawmanning the open source federated social media enthusiast crowd as unaware fans of meta?
As a US citizen, I prefer services that US consumer protections could apply to. (While we still have them, ahem.) I know that Chinese laws will not protect me from things a Chinese business does in China.
(What’s with the rude replies? Did I fail to notice what instance I’m on or something?)
As a chauvinist
Ftfy
This makes me sad, that we can’t engage in civil discussion about this. Why did you assume and not ask questions? Be curious, not judgmental.
To me it’s a question of laws. The laws of the U.S. at least somewhat constrain the people of my own country, and can prevent them from working against their own citizens. Like me.
Please be kind when replying.
That sinophobia isn't going to stoke itself!
Pathetic
Western authorities have been harvesting data for a few decades from social media so any complaint that singles out Chinese apps doing the same is obviously rooted in sinophobia.
The fact you think my joking about racists doing that is pathetic shows which side of that assertion you fall.
My content on here speaks for it self... Dear
rAyCIsM 🤡
The response the deepseek has been so transparent and cliched .
I thought more of Mashable. , but I suppose it’s good when they show you who they really are
I'm not American so they are indeed a foreign actor.
Nope you can't run chatgpt locally.
but it’s a foreign actor so OOooooOOWwwwooOOOO sCaRrRey!
I love that people think this is a solid own. Lest we forget Hong Kong, or an impending hot war in Taiwan or building out extradition systems with an expanding network of countries to forcibly repatriate and torture dissidents and human rights lawyers.
You used to not have to explain why authoritarianism was bad.
Edit: I would love to know the Pro side of what happened in Hong Kong, or the forced extradition regime, since evidently I'm clearly in the wrong in thinking those were bad. What am I missing?
It used to not be necessary because democracies used to have moral authority but since the revelations of Manning and Snowden non-Americans see no difference between giving our data to the USA or to China or any other. We also know from the reaction to the war in Ukraine and Gaza that human rights claims are only sometimes used.
or an impending hot war in Taiwan
When you can't even find things that China actually has done to complain about, so you have to start complaining about things they haven't done.
Anti terrorism is good, actually. I don't support people kicking seniors for speaking mandarin to try to bully a government into not prosecuting murderers in the mainland, which was the reason the protests happened (that and Washington money)
