Eh, it’s actually a wash. China did the exact same shit with different key words. They were just smarter about it.
And most of the censorship was in China.
Because China is a totalitarian dictatorship, and is no ones friend.
Just because the US is shit, doesn’t make China any better. The world isn’t black and white, it’s mostly black and dark grey.




Except for the subtle Chinese propaganda constantly fed to the rest of the world. Now the propaganda is blatant enough for people to abandon the app, so the world is technically better for the US seizure. The app went to shit, but it was already pretty bad, so no net loss there.
