    Yes, sorry. You are correct. What I said was true long ago. Now, its access to the Chinese market that is the carrot.

    At the same time though, most western companies like Uber, Google, Facebook got kicked out of China, and the Chinese stole their tech and made their own knockoffs.

    I think this garbage trend of Chinese censorship may start to fade away, when Chinese companies are the ones operating abroad and get screwed over, e.g Huawei and DJI

      What “tech” is there to steal from the companies you mentioned? Which do the chinese clones use?

        He is a Hindutva fash from India. I am an Indian too, so I can identify these termites. They are eating my country away.

        Huawei and DJI ? Not sure. I stopped following Huawei some years back, when I found out they were just a CCP puppet.

        I meant general industrial espionage. There were massive phishing campaigns starting maybe 10 years ago. The PLA Unit 61398 is rather infamous.

        They stole everything from the trains they use in the country (stolen from Siemens) to their new fighter Jets. Its a fascinating way for a third world country to catch up to far more developed nations.

        Still, they kind of shot themselves in the foot, because it opens up their companies to lawsuits and what not, should they try to operate in western markets.
