Just block anything going out on port 53 outside the network and keep a dns sever on the network. (useful to block known tls dns servers like cloudflares 1.1.1.1 as well) That is sufficient for samsung from my experience. (it does try 8.8.8

In your opinion, does US need China against Russia? In my opinion, not since 1989 when USSR crumbled. Also, it's irrelevant, George Bush is quoted directly that US will intervene to defend Taiwan, same policy was from Reagan well withi

You're failing to understand game theory here. What good are nukes if you are not willing to use them and let others take what they want. By having a very real threat of nuclear escalation you keep others at bay. That's how the US

Its not preemptive if China invades taiwan. It's similar to cuba had the US invaded nukes would have been flying. In this case you would see chinese invasion force wiped out and blockade, after which nukes will definitely be flying.
