Germany has taken steps towards blocking Chinese AI startup DeepSeek from the Apple and Google app stores due to concerns about data protection, according to a data protection authority commissioner in a statement today.
I don’t think China is good. I think China is a strong country doing normal superpower stuff.
The difference is China doesn’t start wars and isn’t out to overthrow other countries governments.
Their leadership doesn’t act like clowns either, they have the seriousness that the western world seems to have lost after everyone collectively decided that voting far-right is “based” for “owning the libs”.
So all in all I expected people to hate China less than the US. But online propaganda speaks louder than reason these days.
And that’s different to American companies how? None of this climate of data harvesting is currently good for us.
At least formally, with US companies there are agreements that the data on european citizen need to stay in EU, with China no
Which gives superficial comfort as it gives scant protection from how aggregate data is used to upend democracy.
I prefer China’s honesty to the US’s dishonesty.
It’s simple: America Good, China Bad.
There isn’t much more depth to it than this. BTW even Lemmy is sadly suffering from the same brainrot.
Yes. But “America bad, China good” is also brainrot.

I don’t think you’ve looked closely enough at China, then.
In contrast, I’m sure you’ve watched every “China Bad” propaganda video on YouTube, and you’re still itching for more.
But I encourage you to go visit it once and see for yourself what it’s really like.
Well.
Not out to overthrow European governments.
