Get a Pixel to use in China and a Xiaomi to use in America.
If you are American, you should buy Chinese tech because the Chinese government is more interested in spying on and controlling its own people than you.

Funny - I assume on one here was actually involved in creating the law that requires identification when buying pornography (or alcohol. Or tobacco) at stores, but we are all considered responsible for it to the point we are hypocrite if we object a similar law?
If someone says they are against that law now, years after it's already established and spread, it won't be taken as "I'm generally against the government limiting our freedom to consume what we want" but as "I want to push children to consume porn/alcohol/tobacco". So no one argues against these laws. But it's much more feasible to argue against the new laws - a ship that's still in the port.
30 years from now, when they make the law that neural implants must detect illegal thoughts in the users' biological brains and block them, you'd make the argument that it's not fundamentally different than blocking the same topics on the internet - a practice that, by that time, will already be accepted by the general populace.

"Bullshit Discriminatory" and "Bullshit Tolerant"
Isn't this the plot of Shimoneta?

Are they trying to present it as if poor innocent users need to be protected from the vile ad blockers?
I'm not clicking on this link. I suspect a yacht is not the only thing that are never gonna be given there.
I also didn’t mind the two extra buttons, and was a little sad when they went away, because they were largely replaced by the joystick buttons, which I think are hard to use properly.
Weren't the black and white buttons replaced by triggers? The joystick buttons already existed in the first XBox.
You can probably get away with it if you write it in a confusing enough fashion; but you need to make it really confusing - to the point even CPU architecture experts could miss it unless they pay very close attention; and remember that the claims - which are the only part of the patent that has any legal meaning - may be limited by law to a single sentence each, but there is no limit on how cumbersome each sentence is; additionally, semicolons are not sentence terminators; this means that this entire comment I just wrote is technically a only one sentence.
