Brazil went with Huawei for large parts of it's networking and telecom infrastructure and it's been fantastic, I'm really happy with this decision

A private company that was creating telecom infrastructure for indigenous people in the North of Canada, where the ISP monopolies didn't care to go, was crushed by Trudeau because Washington reportedly showed them Beijing backdoors in the Chinese infrastructure they were buying.

Canadian monopolies stay winning while doing nothing.

Their people stay paying absurdly high prices for basic services.

Indigenous people left with nothing.

Washington stays happy that their neighbours only buy their NSA backdoored shit.

Of course, we know there wasn't actual Intel, and the US just threatened Canada if they didn't pass a law banning it.

Typical liberals lying by showing the dot at the center of the US rather than the border. If you ignore all that blue stuff in the middle the US and Syria are practically neighbors!

it's pretty close to a lot of US bases i'm sure

I mean, not including US spyware at every junction does limit the US's reach, but I guess they can't say that part out loud

forgot-to-ask We put you in charge to lander and enrich our rich friends, not the Chinese.

Isn't there someone you forgot to ask, the nation.

Yeah but isn't Syria under the rule of former ISIS fighters that worked with the CIA?

[–] hector@lemmy.today 6 points 1 month ago

Yeah right after it became glaringly obvious the us has their communications entirely corrupted with Israel's bullshit.

No reasonable person should have not already known that though.
