Ironically, this future might be what CCP wished. Their practice won't be regarded as "archaic" anymore and U.S ultimate grip in tech might start to wane, however small will be.
A few days ago Pompeo warned that CCP might change "us" (outside PRC in this context). It seems, however, that U.S. might be the first to be changed.
- mrtksn 6y agoI know right? And this saddens me because my whole life the USA was the role model. I was born in a communist country but it changed to be more like USA at my early childhood, so USA is the dream. Now the USA is becoming this thing that values state security in expense of individual freedoms. I am totally not amused. edit: unfavourable opinions seem to get downvoted into oblivion. I am actually surprised by the jubilance in the tech community towards state intervention. Had no idea that people dreamed of becoming like China where the all knowing government protects them by telling them what apps can use and which website they can visit.

- sukilot 6y agoThe CCP is a threat to individual freedoms. Freedom to consort with an enemy nation had never been an important individual freedom in any nation. Don't worry, US has plenty of individual freedom for Enlightening activities like spewing virus on other people.
- mrtksn 6y agoLet's see how joyful is to enjoy the freedom of using government moderated AppStores and websites. The best freedom.
- eirini1 6y agosounds like an excuse to me. How is a political organization in a country that has no jurisdiction over you in any way a threat to your individual freedoms, but the state apparatus in your own country somehow not even when its literally telling you which apps you can use and which ones you can't?
