I agree with the "Use FOSS" part, but I can't help but notice a double standard thats often taken when these kinds of stories pop up. How come whenever a Chinese compant does something like this, China is always at fault? Why is it never America's fault when something like this happens with an American company or product?

I think the Federal Reserve raising interest rates has more to do with it. Now that the VC's that fund everything are getting the money faucet turned off, it's having downstream effects on all these tech companies.

Do you mind explaining what boosting is for us on Lemmy?
