Hypocritical action? China's internet hasn't allowed external companies to offer services since its inception. All I'm saying is if the US wants to treat Chinese companies like China has treated US companies that should be perfectly fine.

You're out here complaining that China's not receiving the same rights it fails to extend to other people and calling that hypocritical??

Also what kind of a "gotcha" do you think this is? Do you honestly think I'd give a rats ass if half the countries on the earth want to ban Facebook?

Do I honestly believe China has an easier time getting corporations to bend over and violate their citizens rights? Why do you need to clarify this??

The U.S government doesn't have the same ability as the CCP to just get whatever info they want out of corporations with no due process. The two are completely incomparable.

I don't give a fuck about musk. I think hos Hyperloop is beyond idiotic and nothing he makes fucking works. In fact I never even said I necessarily think the state of Tesla autopilot is acceptable. All I said was that categorically rejecting autopilot (even for future generations where tech can be much better) for the express purpose of being able to prosecute people is beyond empty and shallow.

If you need to make up lies about me and strawman me to disagree you only prove my point. You stopped being a rational agent who weighs the good and bad of things a long time ago. You don't care about how good the autopilot is or can be. All you care about is your mental fixation against the CEO of the company in question.

Your political opinions should be based on principles, not whatever feels convenient in the moment.

Nothing was misguided and if anything your tone deaf attempt to double down only proves the point I'm making.

This stopped being about human deaths for you a long time ago.

Let's not even bother to ask the question of whether or not this guy could ultimately be saving lives. All that matters to you is that you have a target to take your anger out on the event that a loved one dies in an accident or something.

You are shallow beyond belief.

So you'd rather live in a world where people die more often, just so you can punish the people who do the killing?

I didn't say 64. I said 16 which is perfectly reasonable. Your comment reads like damage control from an apple employee.

The issue is not with the applications psychological effects on children (although i'm sure politicians bring that point up in passing to bolster their argument). The basis for the removal of the application is that it is spyware with rootkit capabilities.

Just because you can get away with 8 does not mean you should. Go google around and find just how cheap an additional 8 gb of laptop RAM is these days.
