Looks nice. Is there a way to use your own sync instead of theirs?

#103As an American, I'd rather have a foreign actor spying on me than my own government. The foreign actor has no jurisdiction over me.
> The foreign actor has no jurisdiction over me. You can be subjected to blackmail and/or other hostile actions from a foreign jurisdiction.
Is that more likely than blackmail and/or hostile actions from home jurisdiction?

Please, it's 2022: anything that is not open source is suspicious of being spyware. We don't even trust our own governments, how on earth are we going to trust any private company (Huawei, Google, Apple, etc.)?

Why are you lumping China with the actual invaders? There's the Taiwan mess, and China don't participate in the sanctions regime, but it's not the same thing as actively invading. ( For the record, i think that sanctioning Russia is the morally correct thing to do)
Hong Kong
Tibet, too.

You're satisfied with a device that is accepting pre-orders and hasn't shipped yet?

I don't know what the likelihoods of either are but if I had to guess I would say that yes, hostile third countries are more dangerous than my own country.
Also, I consider that I would have more recourse against an actor from my own jurisdiction, I think you have pretty much zero recourse against the government of a hostile third country.

It seems like some people really wanted a war with China, and are very upset that they got a war with Russia instead.
Just wait a couple weeks until they get relobotomized by CNN & Friends, then they won't really care about whom they are going to war with so long as they throw enough bombs around

#109With all the events happening right now I find it really hard to justify buying products made in China/Russia/Belarus. This product looks great, but I'll never have a clean conscious knowing my money is by extension financing terrorists.

I don't trust even my own government. I'm not *more* worried about China messing with me. The NSA has more info on me that could potentially be used against me than Huawei. And I've never once seen a situation where the NSA digs data out of their vault to help exonerate an American on trial.
