It’s becoming more and more clear that Twitter and some other big tech giants are in China’s back pocket.
Could you say that louder for the benefit of Semimojo, FreedomNotSafety, and other freepers who have trouble grasping this simply concept?
These foolish people are allowing GOVERNMENT CENSORSHIP through the back door of a "private" company pretending that this censorship is entirely their own idea.
You can't have "private" censorship without government's exerting pressure to force the "private" companies to do what they want.
Google! Want to lose all of the Chinese market? Do what China says or else! Facebook! Want to lose all the Chinese market? Do what China says or else! Twitter! Want to lose all the Chinese market? Do what China says or else!
Google, Facebook, Twitter; "YES SIR!! RIGHT AWAY SIR!!!"
Alphabet, parent company of Google, where Google is the parent company of YouTube... Alphabet is certainly financially tied to the ChiCom military.
They’ve been actively working with the ChiCom military scientists to develop AI for military, as well as civilian control through facial recognition and other means.
Google engineers have openly said in the past they if they worked on US DoD projects, they would actively work to sabotage them. At the same time, they’re happy to work for the military of the government founded by Mao, the greatest mass murderer in human history. CCP actively oppresses minorities for racial, social, and religious reasons, uses slave labor, is reported to use political prisoners to “farm” human organs for transplants, and is breaking the treaty for Hong Kong. And Google and its engineers are more than happy to supply the murderous regime with tools to enslave and oppress Tibet, the Weigers, Hong Kong, and eventually Taiwan.
