Societies, yes. But when compones do it, they will use the lowest bar, because they have a financial interest to keep even the most unreasonable person as a customer.

"some consider hateful"... There will always be "some people" to consider anything hateful. Maybe we should just all stop communicating with each other, so nobody gets "hurt".

That's why I never watch any video on logged in YouTube that may not interest me. Better right click and use anonymous window.

Or you can just not drop an app that just became the victim of corporate censorship.

And who says that Google won't do that? Now is the perfect time to get more censorship in place, be it for commercial or policial reasons.

Yes, very likely you are checking too frequently.

It's sad, but that's the reality of things in our "politically correct" modern world.

> media the same as Chinese media Not quite. Western media lies because they want to earn money and survive. Chinese media lies because they are government controlled and the CCP propaganda arm has a well planned communication strategy

Twitter can be useful. But that takes work. My block list is probably 10 times longer than my follow list.

It's all about collecting user data and usage data. Not about serving images.

No need to look, I lived there long enough and have been to every province. Despite the still existing poverty is the internal market large enough already for many products. However, China is not quite there yet when it comes to technology

That is correct. Plus limited satellite uplinks. The undersea cable connectivity especially in East Aftica sucks. I have the feeling the primary reason why these cables exist is because they connect South Africa to the huge cables between E

No, they didn't wait for the right president. The past 40 years, they developed economically and technologically. It is only since Xi became president, that China feels confident to have a more assertive foreign policy.

China is 1.4 billion people. That's more people than the western world combined. Once China has "acquired" the technology, it doesn't need an export market anymore for economies of scale. China's internal market is

TIL. Basically you type in a password. But instead of fingers, you use HTTP requests. And instead of a keyboard, you use server ports.

That wouldn't surprise me. There are probably entire companies working on nothing else but to reduce his taxes.

I may live in a completely different world here, but I've never seen a single conspiracy video on YouTube. All I see when I open YouTube is videos about science, tech, diy projects, etc. What am I doing wrong?

That was 20 years ago. They are at a completely different place nowadays.

Perfect advice to create a conservative society afraid of any change or new idea. Good luck challenging the status quo without "confusing" or "frighten" people, or "creating a scandal".

Just like here in Germany, it is the ideology of the party that changed (a lot). I've been a Social Democrat for over 30 years, that's why I left the social democratic party here.

Being from one of those "celebrated" countries myself, I can confirm. Though our media too is mostly celebrating our own gov and trashing the US with all sorts of unfounded (and easily verifiable as unfounded) claims. Pretty sad w

Ah yes, because language is the most important reason to get an infectious disease... Am I here on HN or in r/worldnews?

Yep. But Sweden is run by an ultra leftist government, so if course it is not criticised. But the same lies about "the US is doing worse" are told here in Europe as well. Just need to look to the stats, do the sum, and suddenly th

You are wrong when you think that is just the US and everywhere else people trust their govs. Here in Germany, courts have ordered state govs to loosen certain restrictions too. Also interesting how you lament the divide, and then go ahead

I don't think that it requires heavy moderation. Reddit, up until some years ago, was great for political discussion. Simply ignore low quality opinions and focus on the few people who have actual knowledge. Then the "safe space&q

And that's the problem of today's Reddit. People get banned for disagreeing with the mainstream of a sub. Fear of controversy.

Up until five years ago, it was great for political discussion. One of the few places where you could actually find a knowledgeable person once in a while. But open discussion is now largely banned. Each sub only allows you to repeat their
