I don’t think that’s important, given that it’s all just propaganda anyways.

I mean I’ve seen a few recordings of Chinese officials calling folks abroad and making „suggestions“. That was more than just reading headlines.
But I guess you are right. It’s likely all propaganda and China is a paradise.
I mean the nice thing about the internet is that you can at least find videos documenting what the article claims. I mean sure… it could all just be propaganda. But somehow there is a little much of it from so many different sources.
Super easy. Especially since this is all under their control. So they could simply write those messages elsewhere if they wanted to. I’m not saying they do, but it’s technically possible and a walk in the park.
I would generally trust such a company to do it right. But that doesn’t save you when law enforcement and such get involved.
Yes you should. Because it’s not e2e encrypted then.
It’s also about the people though. Been living in the south for some time. Hard to talk to people, even harder to make friends, very rural for the most part. I even would describe a city like Stuttgart as rural. At work people approached me and said „hey you also aren’t from the south right? I noticed“ and were happy to have someone to chitchat with.
Just my own experience... I’m very happy to have made the decision to move away again.
Maybe it’s easy if one isn’t a German since there are kind of expat communities? I don’t know.
I wasn't talking about that and I'm unsure why you are making this about privacy. The topic was about market share and seizing control of certain markets. Microsoft is a really big player in that game and Google ist irrelevant in comparison.
This isn't about just web browsers. Yes. Google is a step ahead in that field. And ten steps behind in most others.
What I was trying to convey to you is: Don't downplay Microsoft just because Google is currently a relevant topic in one corner of it.
Yes. That's important to. No that doesn't mean they are playing in the same league.
No they didn't? My company just recently introduced it.
2.2 billion euros in a decade. Doesn't feel like too much.
How is Google more dangerous. I think you might have a wrong impression based on the current flood of news articles, because the web drm thingy is the current hot topic. Don't get me wrong. There should be a spot light on it. But Microsoft is still playing a whole different ball game overall.
I just read about it in the news since I no longer use Teams. But having used it in the past and then have switched to a Slack+Zoom combination. My god. It's just on another level. Having two products that each focus on one thing and try to make it great kinda works.
Anecdotally Slack has it's fair share of issues once in a while. Zoom barely ever.
Correction: FOSS Android Lemmy apps. It’s missing a few.
