The unawareness of the people here is worrying. Given its track record of censorships, especially of topics regarding the Uyghurs and Hong Kong, it is just unethical to support such a company.

To be fair, if you were to give the same treatment to all other nations, you wouldn't use or buy anything which involves electricity, or any advanced tool. Back to the stone age, to be clear.

The US, in particular, has a very "compelling" story of such things, even if some of these might not be as recent as China's.
