A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Whatever. Let's not pretend that authoritarian China doesn't have its tentacles in the country's business operations to steer everything to its will.

I'm seriously not a fan of China. But thinking that neoliberal western "democracies" are way less authoritarian is just a delusion.

Fair point. Many such places are just committing atrocities in a different configuration.
