Some of us find the interference from the countries we can't talk about more interesting, due to the underlying reasons why.
For instance, I don't even have to name "that country" and we all know who shall not be named. So when we read reports about UAE or China or Russia we just roll our eyes at the stories not being reported on.
- lob_it 4y agoIf a country was not raised with privacy, the culture divide is more than obvious. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/blogs/et-commentary/lack-of-privacy-laws-is-an-invitation-for-everyone-into-our-private-lives/ https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/blogs/et-commentary/lac... I laughed at the caste systems being brought to US companies too, but India's stance on individuals only confirms why dropping tcp/ip makes sense in the 1st world. WWIII can be between 3rd world countries :) Ethipopia hosting some UN Internet meeting after cutting off pipes in its own country was a good laugh too. https://news.yahoo.com/ethiopia-hosts-un-internet-meeting-073710983.html https://news.yahoo.com/ethiopia-hosts-un-internet-meeting-07...
- ithkuil 4y agoSorry I must be too thick and not pick the sarcasm or lack thereof. Could you please reveal the country you all know by "that country" but you shouldn't name it?
- 8note 4y agoI assume it's Saudi arabia. Otherwise, Israel?
- ithkuil 4y agoYeah I thought the same two but since I could think of at least two and I'm not so well versed in US politics, I though that clearly GP meant something more specific since it is as so "obvious" which one it was
- lob_it 4y agoI remember seeing a 60 minutes episode in the 1980's/1990's about Israel and incendiary devices shaped like toys with bright colors. As far as culture goes, it looks like incendiary ballons are their new toy in the 2020's ...... That culture divide is obvious too.. Thats some deep seeded mental issues in that region. I still laugh at all the warning labels on products in the states for obvious reasons. Its nothing compared to those other cultures
- yucky 4y agoWe're allowed to criticize Saudia Arabia, even if it goes ignored. We're not allowed to criticize Israel despite their outsized influence on our government and foreign policy. If we do, we are branded. No other country has their tentacles as deeply embedded and meddles as much.
