This article reeks of propaganda. "We've done the analysis and trust us, only crooks use telegram! Look! there are DOZENS of terrorist chanels!"
I know telegram is shite, but isn't it strange that western governments seem to have it in for it lately?
Concidentally, I only saw these captchas from hell on sites that also have their own apps. I suspect they're trying to force you to use the app instead of the browser (while also training AIs of course).
30 million? For a billion pictures of faces? Lol. Of course they hacen't appealed, that fine is a pittance to them.
Not sure why you feel the need to defend your actions by drawing analogies with real piracy - it's their attitude towards you as a content consumer that you should note in this situation, and that's just appaling. Your actions may well be piracy but frankly that's just a word they use to guilt you out of choosing convenience and safety. Be a pirate and be proud, goddammit!
Yes, god forbid they see opinions from outside their respective bubbles.
There's admittedly some potential in there, like teaching them to analyse statistics and 'teaching critical thinking' whatever that implies.
Conspiracy theory belief however is emotional rather than rational. You cannot 'teach' people to not do it. I worry that they will condition kids to dismiss any news that deviates from official propaganda by just labelling them as conspiracies. And frankly with the UK being the police state that it is, that might just be the end goal.
The Play Integrity API was never meant to detect fraudulent apps, but to make it easy for google to become the arbiter of what's trustworthy and what's not. They knew this of course, but this lawsuit indicates they might have something solid to stand on. Good luck GrapheneOS!
Holy smokes! That account has to be a bot. Awful incoherent ramblings and correct grammar just don't mix.
Yeah, privacy. That's definitely what it's for
What are you going to do with billionaires CEOs that are basically chinese/russian puppets? What about security elements that are "american software" but have leaked to the highest chinese bidder?
How the hell are you going to enforce that no "chinese and russian software and hardware" make it into the cars? Its hilariously difficult to enforce it because its vague, and its vague because its not about national security but trade.
We do need laws to prevent the inevitable abuse that comes with chinese cars but this particular ban reeks of bullshit.
