Not to mention that Chinese intelligence was just revealed to use exactly this kind of government backdoor to spy on people

when the huge demand for AI dies down, then maybe they’ll keep the plant around and provide power to the grid. they’ll abandon it to cut costs leaving the government to mop up after them as they always do

FTFY

Probably the superlative of “live service cancer”

You know you can pay proton with cash, right? No need to go all shady

They have servers in different countries as well

Kotlin has not, and, and or utility functions as well
