LOL ... and same people keep downvoting me. Right. Good luck.
Imagine what happens if you just dare to open it via VPN!
Now imagine that "Kimi K3" is tied to your WeChat QR code.
+1. And these ^^^ are exactly my thoughts for which I had been downvoted to oblivion before. TaDa. They materialise.
Remember that "pirate" guy buying an oil rig and building "freedom" crypto / torrent "country" there, with Datacenter running on the rig? That did not end well. Another case is Kim DotCom. And just look at the "success" of UK's freedom.
TBH, we all are f...d.

This will end Linux as end user OS, it will stay only in Cloud and containers. Arguably, the goal here is to destroy home PC altogether. maximum we will be allowed is a laptop with endpoint verification and mandatory touch ID, locked boot and non-replaceable hardware. If you think Linux is the end of it – think again. The same crap will be implemented in BIOS/UEFI, on "HW management" level. Essentially, your bare HW only laptop will not even start without you touching fingerprint sensor and allowing it to "validate your age" against – of course government approved – HW manufacturer.
Same with smart phones – it's already here, if you tried to activate iPhone.
And projects like Open/Free BSDs? Government will sure their leaders happily retire and ... well, the community will just "die" naturally.

Next stop will be Perl: write only language.
And then we will hit the "Java EE" wall.
Again.
And our LinkedIn will get red hot from recruiters looking for "experienced crisis devlopers".
It's not only marketing. We are witnessing total restriction on advanced AI use. People started asking questions and think. We can't have that, can we? "AI Licensing" is coming up soon. And it will be much more strict than license to carry or even sec clearance. Soon, we will have a AI models per industry fine tuned on pre-approved bank of answers only.
"оur first Hermes agent, with direct API access to our main inventory system" – let me assure you that absolutely nothing can go wrong here, mate. /s
