I am truly appalled at the level of discussion from intellectuals as I consider on HN. Comments here are repeatedly evaluating whether the same thing would apply to US.
I expect more from HN. Can we please discuss the problem in isolation and especially the interesting technical bits? Ask yourself, this kind of exploitation is bad regardless of whether any country does something similar. It's anti-user in every possible interpretation.

- systemvoltage 6y agoI think this is a general trend in China based discussions. Problem does exist in a vaccuum. Xiaomi phones have nothing to do with Google or any US based tech. I am highlighting the absurdity of evaluating US ad-tech to 2 million people in concentration camps.
