    It's not getting enough attention that the Trump administration has banned the sale of ALL WiFi routers made outside of the US. It's one of the first steps required to control Americans' use of the Internet, to spy on what you're doing online, to suppress information they don't want you to see and to even turn off the Internet at their discretion.

    This is looking increasingly like a trap.

      @VeroniqueB99 part of the reason it hasn't been widely reported is because it's not a real thing... it's just another trump shakedown.

        There is no 'looks like'. It is a pathway to coerce the manufacturers into providing a backdoor.

          yeah I was at that point in the 2000's when social media was being born. All seemed like a waste of time to me. Still does, but that was one of those forks in the road of tech where it seemed like a lot of wheels were being re-invented needlessly and resources wasted, and fuckery abounding. Ditto with early smart phones. But both matured, eventually. Still, those transitions are painful. Old wisdom gets forgotten. Perhaps it was always thus.

          I was happy with Archie before we got HTML. That and the news groups. When everyone had their own corner of the Net. I have to laugh there hasn't been anything new since the 70's it all just been refinements of old tech. I got back into the media because of our current administration, couldn't stand the thought of him after the first run. Folks just fucked themselves. Sad. Biden/Harris had set it up so we would have the economy of the 60's. Peace

            @VeroniqueB99 i knew this sanction is going to be impossible to implement. Because the majority of tech is being made outside the US, and they're lazy to produce one.

Even the FaceBook folks we had The Well, BBS's all over the country. I ran one that the first page said something like Hack this Board. I had kids all over trying to do so, some ended up with good jobs and Intel groups and others ended up in jail. Guess I succeeded. 8*)

                                    Trump admin to decide which router makers get exemptions from FCC import ban.

                                    @VeroniqueB99 can't wait until they discover how much of the government infrastructure (and their personal stuff) is not made in the U.S. because we don't make shit anymore thanks to the same techbros that are lobbying for this crap so they can tighten their grip on All The Datas.

                                    That, and there's no way that they can possibly enforce this. I figure that if it really becomes a problem, I'm gonna learn how to build routers and start my own little business. It'll be made right here in the good ol' U.S. of A.!

                                      @Felis_Catus_Domesticus @VeroniqueB99 I think we see much the same thing. It's what brought me into this silly social media, not this one but a past couple. Simply to make a few think. . .

                                        Don't set your hopes too high. IQ's in here are not as high as they might seem.

                                          I put the same credence in IQ as I do in the Ouija Board.
