You realize the CCP absolutely does have global social engineering campaigns, right?
You know how MAGA idiots got fooled by Russian bot farms? That’s you and the CCP. They don’t care about you as an individual the way they do their own dissidents, but they absolutely do want to influence people like you in order to sow chaos, violence and political discord in the US. They see you as a repeater for their propaganda network.
How did you suddenly go from spyware to propaganda and are even accusing me of beeing fooled by them? I don’t even have Tiktok on my phone, I just fiddled with the algorithm in a containerised emulator.
All I said is that I’d rather have China have my data than the US cause China is a much smaller potential threat to anyone outside their country.
China isn’t a smaller threat though because, in the same way that Russian bot farms didn’t have to be domestic to manipulate MAGA heads in to trying to topple our democracy, the CCP does not need to be a domestic power to have really destructive influence in the democratic process (which is their goal).
This idea that the CCP is some benign force just sitting “over there out of everyone’s way” is naive to say the least. The Internet is one of the prime places where they attempt to control narrative.
