He had me in the first half, not gonna lie.
But recommending Telegram? Lol. Lmao even. And Wechat? Arent't you supposed to be within the China Firewall to use that?
What's wrong with telegram? And no you can use wechat from anywhere, at least the chatting part.
imma guess and say the devs are russian dissidents and encrypted chat is not enabled by default. wechat is good but china may b spying on you but i don't care
Honestly China gains nothing from spying on randos halfway across the world, don't get why westoids are so fond of fearmongering about China spying on them with software and then ???
They'll get the secret recipe to my rice crispies squares and will one up me at Veronica's next potluck and I can't have that happen to me it's the only thing I got left
I've tried explaining this to other people. One guy started talking to me about the Chinese secret police stations....
one idiot from my school I talked to said if you said something bad about China they'd arrest you the moment you went there.
As if China has a government agency in which the workers are just scanning billions upon billions of messages just to pick check if one of the millions of annual tourists says something bad about China
China is currently the only superpower that lack descend from white Europeans and who managed to create its own independent economy that are immune to sanctions and monopoly from Western European diaspora. There is also the fear of hard working innovative scary red masterminds who the invisible hand is recruiting into key management positions of Pax Americana that made Pax Americana strengthen their oppressive command economy against free market. The Capitalists had been using heavy government intervention to kill peaceful protestors who demand meritocracy and accountability, but the favorism by the invisible hand to the scary red boogymen made the Capitalists enforce brutal government intervention more openly.
If you're reading this, please hire me, Chinese government!
For all the CIA agents out there, this is a joke!
I think you get the bot/shill card on the Hexbear bingo if you put that in your bio
At the very least they won't provide intel to Colombian drug traffickers.
"WhatsApp as a spying system" sorry nicolás, but you should update your internet explorer
