That misses the point, imo. Much of Hashi’s ecosystem was created by people who contributed to the product believing it was community owned, as that’s what the license said.

Oracle tried to do similar when they closed the source for Hudson. Hudson was forked, creating Jenkins, and I would be surprised if folks even remember Hudson today.

Meh. Still nothing next to what CCP does in China.

Adtech spies on you with it. The gov piggybacks on adtech.

They had issues, but theyve been shipping phones this year and they run Linux.

We dont have to just use ios or android, and I think that’s a great thing!

False.

Was it the “false” part? Because DUH.

Do you feel responding to tone represents something meaningful?

You barely have a clue if you think you’re informing me by mentioning 702.

False.

Smartphones are not a tool to manipulate and spy on tge population. Nor are they a tool utilized by the ruling class to control the masses.

Dont assume that what happens in China will happen elsewhere.

You might appreciate the work done by purism to give us more control over our devices.

ugh metallica too

Protect them by making them smarter, not by stripping away our constitutional rights.

They do it because of capitalism’s decentralized properties.

First, they fear a government having power over them. This can seem irrational, but they interpreted WW2 as 1.) proof that a government can be used to wipe out people it disagrees with, and 2.) that absolute sovereignty in the hands of man made institutions is a thread to god as the supreme sovereign.

The decentralization of capitalism, and democracy, gives them the ability to disconnect as much as possible from anything they dont agree with. This is why they talk about freedom while doing hateful things in the name of their lord. Theyre economically free (to be hateful).

A lot of this mentality really starts after WW2. First the war is won. Then they push to make America as christian as possible. About 50% of US citizens claimed to be christian in 1950, but it is 90% by the 1970’s. In God We Trust is put on US money and added to the national anthem in the 50’s. This is important because the US is starting to fight the cold war against atheistic communists. The power of capitalism becomes part of a global propaganda effort to demonstrate the weakness of the godless systems. The republicans align themselves with christianity, locking it in with Reagan’s election in 1980, and now capitalism and christianity are intertwined and propagandized to the point of not resembling the original ideas anymore. Give that 44 years, and here we are.

This is one person, not all of China.

Let’s take it further. Why is history mostly about politics and warfare? As tho natural history is less important…
