The privacy sub may be even more paranoid than the stim subs.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

This is the kind of drivel which gets posted to that sub regarding why they should care China is "stealing their data" :
I'd like to think this is a joke because I would write something like this as a bit, but I've seen a similar argument 1000 times by now.
One of the senators in the tiktok hearing basically insinuated that China was installing a communism activation word in the heads of Americans.
To put it mildly, Americans are not an intellectual people.
It's not hard you just take literally any issue no matter how pointless or obvious the solution and half the country will think it's good and the other half will think it's bad. America can only process new problems through the lens of adversarial politics where nothing can get done. Ultimately because the US constitution is the worst legal framework in history so they can't campaign on actual policy
the complicated statistical analysis necessary to predict American patterns is a coin flip. Of course the UK is simpler just ask what would an incredibly corrupt person do and there you have it the UK government
and the Chinese wouldn't want to intrude in the excellent job the US government is doing at destroying American faith in their country
That's not how "machine learning" works. Do they think they live in a marvel movie?
Yes
You don't need special algorithms to read the mind of the average American. The American brainpan consists of "car good, racism, queerphobia, kill the homeless, CONSUME" and that really covers 99% of what goes on in the average American's head.
