So... In your opinion, it should be allowed to operate like any normal company without restrictions? What would happen if, say, a powerful Chinese investor attempted to buy it outright?

Oh wow....I had no idea this is an option. How would I do this? Is there a guide to integrate it with your add-on?

I've been using it for a while, rather successfully. In my specific case scenario, I frequently need Chinese (both Mandarin and Cantonese) websites translated. Before Linguist, I'd have to have Chromium somewhere just for that specific purpose. Now I can do it from Firefox, and I love how easy it is to use. I'm still sad I need to use either GTranslate or Yandex in order to translate Chinese, so it's being used to track me online and there's little I can do about that. Bergamot sadly doesn't offer Chinese, and I don't believe it will in the near future. I hope some Chinese offline translator is offered at some point...but I have so far no idea.

...the iPad cover keyboard, maybe?

I have no idea, but that idea didn't work out all that well in the US. The gov provided funding for expansion to the countryside for all the major telecoms...and they just pocketed without actually implementing anything.

Dude... The US is doing it wrong. SE Asia. 1Gbps symmetrical, unlimited, unrestricted. ~14US$.

It also depends incredibly on the team handling the animations. Super Massive games has nothing on Naughty Dog when talking facial animations. There are some serious deep emotions conveyed in Uncharted 4 or The Last of Us. Since they're both on PC now I'd recommend to give them a play if you haven't. While i really like the kind of narratives SMG makes, I think their quality is not as high level as some others.

If it follows the Surface design, it doesn't. Surface's keyboard has no battery and no other connector than the proprietary surface pogo pins, so no way to make it work wirelessly.

Exactly this. I live in a first-ish world country around Asia, and the moment you need paperwork dealt in any other nearby country, a printer is going to save you lots of trips to the convenience store.
