- buran77 4y agoYour generalization of an entire continent is quite offensive (more towards yourself, really). But going past that, sometimes creating things comes with a cost, like privacy. And now you see this dissonance where on one hand we lament the status of today's privacy, while at the same time calling any attempt to limit the damage a sign of incompetence. As for your "tit for tat" explanation, it would hold a lot more water if the bans didn't target (almost?) exclusively the areas where China is pulling ahead.
- pb7 4y agoIt's not a generalization, it is a verifiable observation: Europe creates significantly less. If that's offensive to you then it's time to reflect on what caused you to be in this position.
