#Google's Project #Dragonfly is horrifying. They've gone so much further than complying with #China's #censorship laws; they're providing the tools to identify and target people just for searching for banned info. https://sevvie.ltd/censorship/google-china-will-link-searches-to-phone-numbers/"Don't Be Evil" indeed. Eric Schmidt may have been a crony among cronies when he ran Google, but every good thing done between 2010 and 2015 is being thrown out the window now under Sundar Pachai. Profiting off of China's censorship and targeting of citizens is so, so disgusting. And it's not like making these tools for China means they're restricted to China. They could implement this code for any nation in the world, and we might not even know it was happening.
