Well when Russia blocked Telegram it was just because Telegram refused to send them their users data. Simple. Now France seem to be sentencing a person to live in prison because Telegram still refuses to send them their users data. But they claim it’s for the children. Same shit, different excuse.
Sure, but what the person I replied to is claiming is that e.g. North Korea doesn’t lie to its people about reasons it does things, which is, of course, bullshit.
They said that all governments do some terrible things but in case of the governments that claim they are not authoritarian they pretext those things with something that will make the public not think they are doing a terrible thing.
In case of restricting Internet freedom or invading other countries it’s usually “but think of children”.
LOL, this is a joke right? Authoritarian countries don’t lie about reasons for doing things? LMAO

They didn’t claim it though.

They claimed that authoritarian governments do not do this since they have no reason.
