- 8note 4y agoThe key going forward is to use chinese messaging services that are not beholden to US law enforcement.
- yitianjian 4y agoAh yes, because giving the same information to the Chinese government who don't even need a warrant to access the data is better.

- MerelyMortal 4y agoIf that 17 year old becomes a 30 year old with access to something sensitive the adversary wants, then the adversary might harass/blackmail that 30 year old with what they did when they were 17 years old.
- paledot 4y agoLet's hope the Supreme Court will have come to its senses by then. (Although I agree that the premise in a broader sense of trusting a Chinese company over an American one is flawed.)
- trebbble 4y ago... so they can blackmail some folks to make them turn over corporate secrets, facilitate money laundering, or otherwise act as spies. Maybe still safer than a US company having the data, but not great.
