I think your post would have been just fine making your point without these remarks. It's just someone sharing their experience, that's what I'm reading the comment threads for. We can all see it's a new throwaway account without you lashing out at them.
- jorblumesea 7y agoI think my points are highly relevant. Questioning their intent and motive is an important part of what I was getting at. Highly suspect in every sense of the word.
- tripzilch 7y agoYeah ... I'm not quite getting the same hostility in the air when it concerns US corporations accused of doing exactly the same. Or people defending something as despicable as US Adtech. It's like people sometimes forget they're people, whether it's being fed by the propaganda machine, or being from China, or both. Literally the same situation happens, when FB employees post from an anonymous account and defend Facebook. Reactions are quite a bit more reserved, if not always nice or believing. They will get pointy questions, but they are expected to be treated with respect. Sometimes HN mods even remind people of this. I think it's actually pretty disgusting how forgiving a large part of the HN crowd is, when they do it for US companies. It's just the big X-word. Hostility against those who are even suspected of doing it for the US media enemy du jour. Now of course FB is a finger of the hand that's feeding you the very idea that Huawei is doing it more than USFAANG. (who, coincidentally, also are monitoring you as you speak)
