As I understand the history, HTS is just a rebranded Al-Qaida.
To be fair, it's not hard to beat expectations when the expectation of the western press is "imminent collapse!!!"
Indeed they did, as they always do. I just can't stand burger crackers insisting that Ukraine is a sovereign nation, while at the same time their trusted media and government openly admit that the shots are being called from Washington and not Kiev.
I've had a Huawei for years and I love it. The only telemetry I've noticed is from Google services and other third party apps I've installed. I use a firewall to block network access to apps that don't need it.
Watch Belgium get into trouble at the EU and NATO for even suggesting this.
As to making the proceedings public, even that may not work. I speed scrolled through the Wikipedia page on Sankara the other day and it had a bit about public "show trials."
Something something Parenti quote...
It's not unsustainable, it's below the replacement rate. Even if it were slightly above, China has proven to be more than capable of increasing everyone's quality of life while managing a rising population.
That's about 0.5% growth of the national population, or 5 births per thousand people. Less than a third of the global average of 18 births per thousand. Put into that perspective, it's really quite small.
Overexploited, not underdeveloped. Natural resource wealth belongs to the peoples who live where it comes from.
It's really telling that this inter-government power struggle is played off as the biggest challenge yet in a country which has spent its entire modern history genociding people.
From the perspective of the US state they were. Black liberation and communism are diametrically opposed to the interests of that state. BLM is largely not ML, but liberation of oppressed minorities (aside from the propertied ruling class) is still one of the threats the US state must respond to.
All the marketing of VPNs over the last five years has really confused people as to what they are good for.
"Makes you private"? Private against what exactly? Does that mitigation match my threat model and use case? But that doesn't fit into a fifteen second YouTube ad bit, and most people don't do any further research.
