So to be consistent here, every country outside the US should ban all software originating in the US that collects user information.
If the answer is yes then by all means, but I think it makes for atrocious foreign policy relations.

- mint2 4y agoThat argument doesn’t make sense as it assumes the governments of the other countries are equally at odds as China is with the US. Western Europe and US are generally wanting each other to succeed as friends and allies. China wants the us market but also wants the US to be weaker and not pose an example as a democracy. It also assumes a lot about level government control in each country that is highly dissimilar.
