Technology
News community around technology, social media platforms, information technology and governmental policy surrounding it.
What doesn't fit here?
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
- If article mentions "AI" in a sentence and then talks about business economics that doesn't make it tech news.
- Gaming is too many layers removed from technology. There are many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Transporation is too many layers removed from technology. EVs while use many cool technologies have many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Entertainment is too many layers removed from technology. While sometimes it can fit here, business or cultural aspects of it are a better fit for dedicated communities.
- Cybersecurity. While it heavily focuses on technology, most of the time it's too technical for most people who are not already invested in it. Should be posted in a dedicated communities unless it has broader connection to other tech areas.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.

China had built its entire country from a peasant-tiddled backwater shithole to the manufacturing powerhouse of the world, from two simple steps:
Steal as much of the Westerners' intellectual property as one is capable of. Fuck you and your copyright laws, but if you steal China's IP ideas, that's unacceptable.
Exploit the peasants like slave labor and try your best to pay them as such.
To be fair that's what America did to England.

The US used to only recognize copyright of US writers. Foreign books were printed without any payments. Charles Dickens didn't get any money from American publishers who printed his books.

About time the world does the same to the US.
Better than playing the tariff game.
Whoa, TIL. Thanks for that interesting history lesson!
This isn't China though, it's a Japan-based startup. At least according to the article
China lifted 800 million peasants out of abject poverty. In fact, China accounts for nearly ALL of the world's net positive poverty alleviation in the last 50 years, as capitalist countries have produced more poor people over that time.
I gotta say, I've never seen One China sinophobia before, normally you people screech that Taiwan isn't part of China.
Out of all things you accuse China. Racist guy.
China isn't a race.
Spare me your woke BS.
Chinese here. He's not wrong. Should we just pretend it didn't happen?
That has nothing to do with topic at hand.
True, it was japan not China. Doesn't make him racist though, just mistaken.
I'm referring to their government and socio-economics, you silly racist fuck.
What do they even have to do with this article? It's a japanese startup stealing TSMC industry secrets, a taiwan based company 😂
Off topic excuse.
