Would I be reading this if it was only American companies?

No, probably not.

I think it's just a little shocking as it kind of makes it seem like nobody outside of China supports WebAssembly.

I think having a wide variety of companies from open source "pro web" to Google and Alibaba might be better then having a pile of extremely wealthy firewall supporting companies.

No, because several different American companies would represent several differing viewpoints.

A bunch of Chinese companies is essentially the viewpoint of the current dictator of China, should he choose to weigh in.

Shocked by the downvotes, to be honest.

Are you sure?

For instance, they are two countries, whose names end with the letter "A"... dare I continue?

Can you please cut out the lower/boring segment of trolling? (like this and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21804133)
