China is creating competition for many things now. The world needed that.

Now we just need to unattach ourselves from the US and have fair competition.

I'm not saying you cant buy from the US, but it will be on a level playing field.

Lets record everything CEOs and government officials do in their spare time, and lets see how long that lasts.

It's made up value so he can borrow against it. You dont pay taxes on borrowed money.

Unfortunatly there will not be an actual pushback, because most people will always prefer convinience above almost anything else.

Even facts.

I know so many people who will use ChatGPT fully knowing it might be wrong. They dont care.

Scary, right?

I know what the article says, but I'm just adressing the headline with a missuse of the term AI.

It's like saying "is sport profitable" and then only talking about a specific genre.

No, but some like it.

You can always turn down the settings, if you dont care.

The legally have to because of the US Cloud Act.

Every single US company has a backdoor because of this.

I'm convinced that all the "China is tracking you!!" is a giant deflection for how much the US is tracking.

They have always been the worst offender, and Snowden was only a warning for something that has been going on for many years.

Their alternative is literally to bankrupt their countries, because those stupid fucking idiots put too many eggs in one basket.

Without oil/gas export, they can wave goodbye to their economies as they are today.

 

Chat Control didnt pass - they didnt even vote because they were afraid the result would be embarassing.

And we got told so many times, that EU now wants Chat Control. But it was a big fat lie.

EU is a democracy with different opinions, and when a small group of facists tries to read your chats, it does not represent the EU opinion.

But the whole media got you thinking so. Proving even on Lemmy, you and me are extremly prone to propaganda.

I quoted the article here with the news:

In a major breakthrough for the digital rights movement, the German government has refused to back the EU’s controversial Chat Control regulation yesterday after facing massive public pressure.

The government did not take a position on the proposal.

This blocks the required majority in the EU Council, derailing the plan to pass the surveillance law next week.

 

For me it would probably be Canada. Seems like we share alot of values with them, and we could do more trading than we do today.

Especially if they also will have tensions with the US, it would be a win win.

But what do you guys think? Northern Africa would be an obvious choice in the future, but I don't know if they're ready.

PS. This is not a post talking about leave the US entirely. Ofc not. It would just be better for us to work with others and expand our worldview a little.
