That was the problem in the beginning though, waging a separatist war. It's why all this started when a lot of Uyghurs came back from Syria after fighting for ISIS. Do you think more of those bombing campaigns, taking hostages at polic

Saying Ubuntu rather than Debian derivative also, I can hear the furious typing of a thousand angry nerds right now. One in 25 sysadmins manage MacOS servers? That's a solid raised eyebrow from me.

What's the average population density in NZ vs all those other places? Anecdotally I'd say a small fraction.

Microsoft has 99% marketshare. KFC, McDonald's, Nike, Coke, GE, GM all have dominate huge chunks of their market. What you are saying is completely incorrect and bizarrely repeated ad nauseum here. There's far more US companies op

Tiktok isnt doing business in China though? Bytedance has a similar app that meets local legal requirements but it's not up for sale.

This is an excellent point. Checking wireshark should really be done first.

What a bizarre viewpoint. So America should sell off these brands to the highest bidder and focus on companies that only produce and sell in the US? You are totally fine with letting China buy coke and kfc? Both have huge market penetration

There's this radical concept called the burden of proof that's been around in debate since antiquity. Do you have any proof that Zhang Yiming has been forced to become a CCP member or lose his job? Hell I'll even make this ea

Funny because the whistleblower Witness K might disagree with you there (No name because his trials are conducted in secret and he's had his passport removed to prevent him testifying at the Hague upon their request)

This law exists in Australia The US just has secret laws and courts to compel boards to do what they say or otherwise straight sends its goons to illegally hack their own global companies seemingly oblivious to why rule of law even exists.

There's something so innocently charming about this whole story, the idea of an aristocrat taking his pineapple down the street to impress his peers is ridiculously funny.

So nothing really surprising, shame he didn't go into the encryption lib but I'd guess it's something boring and normal.

> By definition, ByteDance is owned by the CCP. This is just absurd, that's not the case at all. Your argument boils down to some bizarre implication that any Chinese company is state-run. For all the over-emotional CCP rants on thi

I'm not sure if this is coming down to semantics here but the password is essentially encrypted to everyone except the client, I wouldn't call that sending a password over the wire, you may disagree. This is a unique value for eve

Another alternative is a PAKE. You'll never have a password sent over the wire. For some reason PAKE schemes aren't that commonly used despite having a solid grounding. Matthew Green has a few good articles on them.

> American companies have much greater penetration into the Chinese market than vice versa. It's blindingly obvious if you've been in both countries. It's utterly bizarre to see people completely unaware of this clear fact

Which companies are locked out? Last I looked China is packed full of American companies, far moreso than the other way around. Apple, Walmart, Nike, Coke(61% marketshare), P&G, KFC, McDonald's, GE, GM, Boeing (50% marketshare), MS

He never even got the chance to argue against that charge in court before it was dropped years later. It doesn't matter though, the endgoal was complete. It's straight out of the TLA handbook for "how to discredit a person 10
