Two wrongs don’t make a right. US companies don’t have to trade with China.
But the US banning trade with China is nothing but an attack on Americans and my freedom to trade and communicate.
- paxys 6y agoTry launching your app in China and see how much freedom you have. Regulating international trade (via agreements) is one of the foremost responsibilities of the federal government, and if this move forces them to open up their economy to fair competition it's a net benefit for everyone.
- alexmingoia 6y agoNobody is forced to do business with China, but you and those who support these policies are forcing me not to do business with China. Leave me alone.
- paxys 6y agoHow does this move affect your ability to do business with China?
- xvector 6y agoYou can absolutely launch your app in China if you follow the law.
- Markoff 6y agothey don't, but WeChat is also huge security risk spying on people abroad with access to photos etc., tool used to tax evasion payments within the app etc. for instance you go to chinese restaurant - you can choose to pay legally with card or cash money they have to tax or undocumented untaxed income through wechat
- thaumasiotes 6y ago> for instance you go to chinese restaurant - you can choose to pay legally with card or cash money they have to tax or undocumented untaxed income through wechat This sounds like the exact opposite of the truth. Payment through wechat generates records. Payment in cash doesn't.
- Markoff 6y agoyeah, records in China inaccessible to IRS, but we are discussing here WeChat ban in US
