"I'm not really worried about the Chinese government having my stuff. What are they going to do with it? They have no jurisdiction over me. I'm much more worried about the US government tracking me."
"Ugh, you think the government is trying to track everything on you? Conspiracy theorist much?"
In that very same meeting they also discussed a lot (off the record) about "wokeness" coming to our country and whether we would get "American conditions" with references to a report from a few months prior titled "Report from a woke university" which was written like it was Iraq circa 2004. All in all it made me pretty sad for the future, since any amount of time dedicated to "combatting the rising wokeness" is time that isn't spent on making sure that our universities actually fucking function. All our students are depressed as hell and rents have reached a point in the city that people are being priced out of attending.
