The poster explained it. The government secretly silencing voices behind closed doors is pretty evil. Or is that only when Russia does it?

When Microsoft has telemetry:

* Windows is a spyware machine - how can anyone use it? Year of Linux baby!

When Apple has telemetry:

* It's working as expected.

So... to be fair, is there a thorough comparison of the two? How are they the same, and how are they different?

But the things mentioned in the post above yours have nothing to do with telemetry. They're more like core functions to make the system work at all.

Any institution that does not kill thousands every year:

Annual Deaths (Recent Years): - Mediterranean Sea 2,000–3,000+ (60% drownings) - Pushbacks/Frontex Several hundred (2,000 deaths linked to Frontex actions) - Land Borders/Camps Dozens to hundreds (Winter peaks, underreported)

There are by far too few NGOs or journalists looking into the despicable practices of the EU - but we Europeans definitely should not sit oh the high horse and preach about human rights to anyone.

It is a disgrace what we as a European people let our elected officials get away with.

Australia hat a similar situation. They cut that number down to basically zero when they publicly announced that no one entering Australia that way would ever be able to settle in Australia in any way.

> sentenced to seven months

Which he will do exactly 0 months because it's a suspended sentence. Still crazy but nowhere close to "7 months of prison for a meme"

PS: Didn't the US just deport people to a foreign prison because they had tattoos ?

Quotation marks are usually used if you quote someone. Not if you make up additional things in your head that a person supposedly said.

> Yet to many Europeans the idea that free expression is under threat seems odd. Europeans can say almost anything they want, both in theory and in practice.

A journalist in Germany was just sentenced to seven months for posting a meme of a politician where she holds up a sign saying "I hate free speech".

Interesting to read the perspective of Americans who don't understand that different countries have different election systems, and that Canada doesn't directly elect their PMs.

Neither does the US (President or PM, which they don't have). ;)
