Russia and China are allies. And I'm not sure if Beijing would even be interested in spying on TOR users since it's blocked so thoroughly it's basically unusable for Chinese residents.
- giantg2 2y agoI don't know they are that aligned to be sharing bulk data like that. I don't think the are considered formal allies.
- bluGill 2y agoChina is for sure interested in spying on people in the US. I'm not sure if TOR users are of special interest though.
- Workaccount2 2y agoChina and Russia are decidedly not allies. They are neighbors with some overlapping interests and sort of similar goals if you squint. It wasn't very long ago that they were killing each other over border conflicts and annexed territory. China right now is just using Russia for cheap energy, they don't actually care about the health of the state.
- trompetenaccoun 2y ago>It wasn't very long ago... If that's how geopolitics worked China would still be an American ally, vice versa. But alliances can change. Once an enemy always an enemy isn't a thing. >they don't actually care about the health of the state That's true but it's not a requirement for Xi to care about Russia. In fact I'm very sure he doesn't care about the Chinese people either. Russia needs China and the CCP uses Russia, not just for cheap energy but for fighting a war that many Westerners haven't even realized that it has begun already. Russia and China have a common enemy, that enemy is NATO.
