So we spent like what, 20 years saying China censorship bad and finding sneaky ways to get them in the global Internet via VPNs and Tor and Tor bridges, and now we want to make our own?
That'll go well.
They're already putting porn behind a government firewall in many red states. They're coming for everyone else now.
We don't want that. A very small group of very small spoiled children do.
A very small group of spoiled children with outsized wealth and political power*
Everything they accuse others of is what they want. The projection is absolutely insane. Children grooming, limiting free speech, stealing elections, stealing jobs, everything...
That's been the plan all along. Just needed the big bad Chinese Bot to come along to start nudging the idiots of Xitler and r/conservative to start clamoring for their own Great Firewall to protect their freedom.
How about fuck you assholes. Build better security
Remember remember the fifth of November, gunpowder treason plot. Never shall it be forgotten.
"Remember, remember the fifth of November, gunpowder, treason and plot. I know of no reason why gunpowder treason should ever be forgot."
Thanks for the fix, was trying to remember the lines. I failed horribly
I agree, but no, I'm not wearing the stupid mask.
Better to not wear masks, in project mayhem we hide in plain sight
Night City
Specifically, the Blackwall.
Pretty crazy how prescient Cyberpunk (and Neuromancer, etc.) are looking right now.
Preem.
Well that would be against the 1st amendment. Not only are these shitheads running towards the slippery slope, they're already sliding down the mountain and dragging us all along with them in the name of staying on top and keeping their money. They will certainly not be bound by such laws, and there will just be more and more of this "haves v havenots" bullshit. This shit needs to be shut the fuck down. Now.
The shitheads have already threatened to use force against their allies in NATO and applied amnesty to participants in the coup attempt, so... Nothing is surprising anymore.
Short sighted idiots
I think the tech bros are simply terrified of what China is about to unleash on the US and the world by them bringing down their great firewall this year.
They are bringing it down?
Yes, Xi made an announcement last week it will start off in one of the major cities with full removal in a few months. Chinese citizens will be able to sign up on all 'western' social media. The US opening Pandora's box with the TikTok ban has let the Genie out of the bottle. I suspect other tech to come out of China will make the US look like its living in the mid 1800s
I wonder how this site manages to load the stylesheet 1 second after the content?
So, those AI rules and regulations from the Biden admin order that Trump walked back as soon as he got into office...
China is an entire economy built on intellectual property thievery and slave labor. The whole thing, that's their advantage, and source of gdp which perpetuates the CCP's stranglehold on 1.4 Billion people . Theft and slavery. The Chinese CCP can fuck off into the sun.
Sounds like very late stage capitalism to me....
They just did the speed run past us.
The United States of America stole the land from the Indians and used black,Irish and Chinese slaves to build it. The United States can fuck off into the sun.
China is an entire economy built on intellectual property thievery
To be fair, espionage is a common thing throught history. This is nothing really morally wrong with copying from other countries.
By your definition, the US technically "stole" the atomic bomb from the nazis by "stealing" German scientists. I mean like... who cares.
Your argument should focus more on what the implications of what it means for China to become more powerful, not the "intellectual property" aspect. Like what jurisdiction? The powerless UN? Is it "intellectual property" if we find a alien spacecraft and didn't ask the aliens for permission to reverse engineer it?
Did US propaganda tell you that?
