It’s Not Just Google—Microsoft Is Also Up To No Good In China
Great America ^ | August 18th, 2019 | Paul Bradford

The tech giant is a leader in artificial intelligence products for China. Microsoft has partnered with several Chinese universities to create an open AI platform and several of its employees train government bureaucrats on how to use its advanced technology. These universities are well-connected to the Chinese military, which effectively makes Microsoft a collaborator. The tech giant has denied this assertion, claiming it only works with benign academic researchers. That claim is only believable if you ignore who uses the technology developed by these humble academics.

At least three AI projects have been developed with China’s National University of Defense Technology, an institution directly overseen by the nation’s military. American politicians accused Microsoft of providing tech to persecute ethnic minorities and political dissidents.

“It is deeply disturbing that an American company would be actively working with the Chinese military to further build up the government’s surveillance network against its own people—an act that makes them complicit in aiding the Communist Chinese government’s totalitarian censorship apparatus and egregious human rights abuses,” Marco Rubio said in April.

Oh most definitely. I worked there for 5 years and had enough of the culture and above all the globalist agenda. the US is a door mat to them and they wipe their feet on it regularly..

Most corporations are traitors. It’s their nature.

It’s also good when crimes are committed since you can’t send a corporation to prison :)

That being said, investment banking corporations have been very good to me in the past.

They are crooked as HELL, believe me. But they were good to me.

Large co’s no longer have loyalty to the US. Googles CEO is Indian with a hatred of the US.

They’re called multi-nationals for a reason.

These multi-nationals have no national loyalty, but expect nation states to enforce their intellectual property claims.

Some multi-nations even expect nation states to pay billions (and require insurers to pay) for drugs that have no/insignificant market value.

Chinese government surveillance technology will get exported.

Chinese big brother has American and British siblings.

Most Chinese know to be careful online, like most Americans do.

Lately, goobugoogo (Mumble,mumble) has been pestering me to “update” my Parler app every day. I did so on the first request, but after that, they nagged me every day until I simply did what they really wanted, and uninstalled my Parler app from my googly operated android phone. It’s bad enough to have them intruding in my phone every time I turn around just because it’s android and uses a googly-friendly operating system/phony service. Darn it...I LOVE that phone...

With MS it’s not just what you do online, The worry is there from the moment you boot the MS OS. Everything you do on your computer even off line is updated to MS every time you do eventually make a connection to the internet.

IMHO MS has too much to lose to do that. MS's cash cow is what it does in corporate America, especially with it's surging cloud business. If they were to be found out to be snooping on your data it'd be a complete wipe-out of their business model. You might as well try to win a state-wide election in Alabama saying you hate football. :)
