Alright China shills, you can stop changing the subject to how Google and the US are the "same".
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests_and_massacre
If you lived in China you'd likely not know about this, since people who talk about it go to prison.
Yeah the US is exactly like this so let's not talk about the Chinese government being awful to their citizens /s
No one is saying Google massacred protestors, but if you're gonna be against keyboard apps spying on you it should be irrelevant who they're spying for. Criticizing shitty things American companies do doesn't make you a China shill and calling everyone who does it a China shill is intellectually dishonest.
claiming that the dozen people in this thread falsely equating what China is doing to the things that happen in the US -- ignoring that they are very different, and ONLY considering that they are moving attention away from the posted article -- is not so much "intellectually dishonest" as it is an intentional lie with a goal. Good bye.
Kinda funny how your own username partially contradicts your argument.
"It's different when it's dystopian dictatorships that were nominally communist in the 70s"
When did I say it was different? It's basically the same thing.
Sorry that was unclear. I was agreeing with you.
