Sure, and I agree, but that seems to be a separate matter. China is an authoritarian regime and all that..

Or that a company operating somewhere, has to follow the laws of that place.

Sounds like Hong Kong is Chinese and Apple has to follow local laws, to me.

I always dislike the absolute-ish kind of phrasing like "the personal information", implying it's all information.

Reply to comment by tomistruth in NSA asks Congress to let it get on with that warrantless data harvesting, again by Sorin61
> Real title should be; “NSA asks Republican held congress to pass bill allowing unauthorized monitoring of US citizens and wants money to hire fulltime citizen spies.”
The real title should be neither that or what it is, since they are both clearly biased. Instead, it should state as plainly as possible, the facts. Opinions and analysis can follow, as long as it’s separated from facts.

Reply to comment by StugDrazil in Why TikTok’s future has never been so cloudy by prehistoric_knight
> It’s a Chinese Spy app FFS. Why are people ignoring this?
Probably because it’s claimed, but not actually demonstrated to be so. You could make a similar claim (without “Chinese”) about, say, Facebook.
> but here you are giving everything you do, say, text,
Actually, just the stuff you put on tiktok.
> Jeez listen and learn, but you won’t because your stupid.
Personal attacks make for very poor arguments.

Not really. You could as well say that we are at rest and they are moving faster. There is nothing special about the CMB frame in that respect. But we can compare the time dilation between us, and I’m sure someone did the math. I have a feeling it will be small.

The fact that speed can only be measured relative to something else implies that there is no absolute speed. Also, the flow of time is always normal for yourself. It’s only that you see others, moving at very different speeds, to have dilated time, compressed space.

No, in general 5G NR is an evolution of LTE, with improvements in many areas (such as latency and flexibility). Most are just too technical to make sense in marketing.
