Sounds like Google’s enterprise features have a dependency on Google Play (and presumably GSF) and Android phones in China can’t be turned into work phones as a result. Makes a lot of sense.

Is there any way I can help contribute public transport information to OSM? It’s the one thing that Google maps does that I can’t replace.
opt-in
I tried opting-out. There’s no way to do this account wide; the setting has to be changed per-device. I didn’t really like that.
Seconding Ahmad Tea, I’m impressed by how cost effective they are.
These are all strategies that have already been adopted in China, they will block it like everything else.
Why not use the English word for an entity that resides in the USA: American?
We know. The entire goal of their internet policy is to control exactly what their population can access, which means they have an isolated network, by any means necessary.
I think that statement would be true if we solved scarcity, perhaps.
Do you not want to find out how the game ends? I think I get it, though, since I’d just make up endings I preferred for books with endings I didn’t like.
What is 3D about the banner? The mouse cursor graphic?
The impact as of right now is that everyone thinks they’re being absolute assholes about it.
If it’s a small but loud group of unpleasant people on the internet, can’t we just do what we’ve always done and ignore them?
According to China’s Coast Guard, Manila’s ship had deliberately and dangerously approached a Chinese vessel in an unprofessional manner, forcing it to take control measures, including “boarding inspections and forced evictions.”
Oh no! An inflatable boat has approached our large, well equipped vessel! Quickly, we must forcefully board this boat even though it is “dangerous and deliberate,” and chop off their fingers! Then we will puncture their boat with our swords, that will show them!
Let’s just generalize an entire country by calling them all racist, that will surely make for fantastic discourse.
I always buy Christmas cake after Christmas, it’s a steal.
So they’ll just change their DNS server again? What will this achieve?
To give them the benefit of the doubt, perhaps they are trying to stay neutral by publishing articles from various points of view, including the CCP’s.
I had to double check when reading the article that this was indeed published by the Economist, particularly after this line:
As a private firm whose goals dovetail neatly with those of the Chinese government, it is becoming a model for how China thinks about innovation.
How do they know this, besides perhaps an official from the CCP making a statement about it?
The current version of the OS has been built with open-source Android code to make Android apps compatible for the time being. It is designed to be used in all Huawei’s consumer products, including watches, televisions and vehicle systems, which makes it possible to integrate functions across devices. It is said to have 700m users and 2.2m developers.
The next version of Harmony is expected to drop all Android-linked code.
Harmony OS is an Android fork. Dropping all Android-linked code in an Android fork means removing almost all its code. I’m curious to know if Huawei have indeed developed their own OS, like Samsung’s Bada, and if it really contains no trace of Android.
OpenAI always was banned in China, where was this significant concern when the CCP banned it?
