**tearing everything apart
I mean, trying to regulate technology at the speed of American politics was very obviously a nonsensical and futile proposition from the get-go.
The only winners in this scenario are governments that want more control over their citizens’ digital lives.
And that, as the saying goes, is not a bug. It’s a feature.
What happens when Americans start posting about Hong Kong not being a part of China?
You mean mainland Taiwan? Never heard of this China.
You know the official name of Taiwan’s government is The Republic of China right?
That’s the joke yes. Among others here. 😆
Yeah, that’s where the previous Chinese leaders fled when the communists took over…
China doesn’t let it’s own people use these apps…
Rednote is mostly chinese users.
I’d bet Chinese government WANTS people using these apps. They have established state control for rapid monitoring and data collection and rapid censorship and targeted groups for manipulation and propaganda.
The same as already happens on lemmy.ml 😂
Really? Let me try.
Hong Kong isn’t part of China. Taiwan is an independent country.
极其滑稽的
Tibet is completely forgotten 😢
Tibet was CIA propaganda. The Dalai Lama org was directly paid by the CIA
let’s assume that statement is true, let’s take the words of an anonymous internaut for truth :
CIA paid Taliban too, i remember reading. Does that make Taliban too just propaganda?
U.S. sponsored and sponsors many movements around the globe as long as their goals align. That money alone can’t invalidate the cause.
Like, on the contrary, U.S. sponsorship can’t validate a cause either.
i remember unsubscribing from political communities, why the heck am i responding to this comment at this hour. Completely futile! Will it change your mind? Do i really care what you will think about Tibet tomorrow?
Tibet was today’s Uyghurs. its US Sinophobic propaganda.
The same as when Americans posted about the gaza genocide on tik tok, the government cracks down.
They’ll probably get mocked and their posts removed.
The same thing that’s happening right now with Americans claiming Taiwan is not part of China.
To shreds you say?
Lol, 700k misinformed idiot Americans you mean.
Anyone that knows anything about average TT users knew that if the ban was going to happen, that this was going to happen in some way, shape, or form.
I’m pretty sure Xiao Hong Shu translates to Little Red Note in English. I’m not using it, just clarifying the name to make it seem small / cute. Aduki beans are Xiao hong dou.
First of all, the name doesn’t translate to “Little Red Note”, but “Little Red Book.”
Second, Little Red Book is literally the nickname of a Chinese political publication called Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung.
Sorry, that name isn’t cute at all.
LOL my god, it’s really that in-your-face blatant?!
I think most people know it too. They protest because they have already got hacked a dozen or two times, advertisers steal all data not locked down, and the government scoops up all of that. So they question “what can China do to me that hasn’t already been done. My data and privacy has already been made worthless”
