    Are you just trying to make a bad pro-China argument or have you never been online before?

      I see it more as a good anti-Microsoft argument 🤷🏻‍♀️

        “Why does no one say murder is bad unless China is murdering”

        Isn’t a good anti-murder argument

          “Why does no one say murder is bad unless China is murdering”

          I can not fathom how you absolutely nailed the essence of my comment, yet misunderstood it (and - arguably - your own example) so fundamentally.

          Let me try to help, once:

          “Why do most people not complain about murder when Microsoft is doing it, but when China is doing it, the very justified outrage can be heard?”

            People do criticize Microsoft for using open source data to train LLMs, just like people criticize murder

            Hence the query about having never been on the internet before
