    But you are cherry picking outcomes. Does a police force, an army, a functioning society align with your personal values? I agree government make mistakes, but that isn't an argume…

    Australia doesn't have Fair Use provision because it doesn't need it. Australia allows use of copyrighted material for research/teaching purposes (up to a % limit). As in it isn't …

    I think you don't follow Chinese news very much. They are heavily effected by terrorist attacks, low and high tech. Also, I don't think China's position has anything to do with the…

    It's interesting that this a concern, as this is a greater level of privacy than what we've enjoyed anywhere else. I'm thinking in real world contexts.

    I haven't really read the "outside foreign forces" line in chinese press. Where did you see that? Chinese understand their government and the Hong Kong situation. So I don't know w…

    There is a weird "Us and Them" vibe from your comment. Is the US/Australia/Uk's treatment of Julian Assange (as an example) not count as "oppressive regimes" and "...dissidents, pr…
