Tankies failing to comprehend the fundamental difference between an actor who tries to make money off you and an actor trying to manufacture dissent and influence the public narrative
- Yeah because Facebook totally doesn't do that.
  
  Point taken, though it’s still an American company they could crack down upon if they prove too dangerous too.
  To be clear: I don’t want to get spied upon by anyone and I don’t use most of the American services for that reason. But obviously domestic bad actors are better than bad actors controlled by a foreign and hostile government
  
  It's crazy to me that people such as you unironically believe the position you're saying that American companies are easier to crack down on.
  We are literally seeing concrete proof in action that domestic companies are much harder to crack down on or regulate. They are much better positioned to lobby and are currently using their immense political power to protect themselves while removing their foreign rivals. There isn't even talk of taking action against them because they are so politically powerful.
  
  It would be a lot better if Congress could pass a comprehensive privacy bill, but we lack a functioning government so I guess this is the best we can do.
  Greatest democracy in the world, right here.
- Libs failing to actually read Manufacturing Consent.
- trying to manufacture dissent and influence the public narrative
  That shit is all over American social media too buddy. If that's the issue it should all be banned.
