The idea is DOA. All one needs to do is replace "companion" with "spy", or "Jexi". No one with a brain is going to be willing to allow that kind of chaos into their lives.

Incorrect in the reason, but they did succumb for another reason which hasn't changed, so correct sentiment. You can't compete against companies that don't have a loss function constraint on their business.

Occasionally, I do to. Are you trying to say that China doesn't fabricate and lie about their metrics and collection methodology? because I hate to be the one to break this to you, it does and there's a lot of news coverage on it

This is what happens when you let delusional bankers run things. Monetary policy fails in low interest rate environments, and you get chaotic whipsaws thereafter which grow with time. You can find reference to this if you know where to look

It is well known and established that stats favor rhetoric, and by extension lack credibility as fact. If you can't guarantee the expected methodology conformed in collection, bad data in causes bad data out, its worse than no data at
