>also youtube should heavily vet and tag all their kids related videos Clearly YouTube usage needs adult supervision more than Google trying to moderate comments and blocking specific content from children. I will never work.

Every time I read about JavaScript I feel like one of those old men yelling at skaters or complaining about motorcycles being obnoxiously loud. IMHO it is an awful language and no matter how much I hear about how good it is from friends I s

So basically the thinking is that China is bad/evil because it doesn't follow US law? Does it also count as bad/evil when the US dowsn't follow Chinese law?

There's a style of commenting which (to me) sounds like it's written by American speakers with great, native English skills. And it seems to me like astroturfing...

Holy shit, that picture at the top is the most propaganda-brainwashed-picture I have seen since looking at old cold war pictures. As if the US is in a good vs. evil fight. Well it might be, but on which side?

Yes lots of programs still work if you just do this little thing and maybe this little hack which is the same as not working unless you use hacks. Which brings us back to what I wrote.

No one outside of Bloomberg has seen any evidence of mainboard spy chips. You must be thinking about CPUs.

How is that a chip in a mainboard ? The mainboard story was a propaganda piece in Bloomberg aimed at China.

Does it really matter? If you are in China, sure, but if you are a non-Chinese citizen you are better off having someone else than your local version of NSA harvest your data. It is not like some other nations police will knock down your do

> "most Windows 95 applications still run fine in Windows 10" Uhm, no. Not really. With hacks by the user (or OS) maybe, but if hacks are allowed then most of that list can be deleted.

That is a great idea. I'm going to try this myself on my Android phone (though ads etc. are already blocked on it). Might be a good way to put a tripwire up to catch if anything suspicious happens. EDIT: OpenWRT's adblock package

How does the NSA, CIA, etc. sign? Does Mozilla also block them or is the blocking only against those who might "cross the red line" and spy on Americans?

No it does not. This is the GDPR discussion all over again. "This will kill the internet" and "All sites will be subscription only" etc. I'm not for the proposed law but it does not does not block fair use.
