The title is misleading, to the point of being an outright lie. The quote they put under the heading quotes politicians, not “tech execs”. The only quote from a tech exec in the article (Anthropic CEO) is talking about export controls for chips, which is very different from a “great firewall” that the title claims.
A “great firewall” would mean blocking Chinese AI products from being accessible in the US, not blocking exports of US products into China. The article only quotes politicians asking for that, despite what they put in the title.
EDIT: and for context, ChatGPT is blocked in China, while DeepSeek is allowed in the US, to the point of being the top trending App Store app.
using the picture of obama @ the great wall of china is an interesting choice, haha
Fucking called it.
America gets more and more like China, will there be US-tankies here soon too?
The’ve been here for so long they blend in perfectly. It’s better on lemmy than on reddit but boy do we have lots of USA national chauvinists on here too.
Not trying to defend tankies btw.
Well yeah, but the US authoritarians tend to be right wing instead of left wing in their justifications of absurd state violence. They’ve been extremely prominent since at least the whole “freedom fries” era.
You’re asking this question on Lemmy? Where have you been?
GFW, KGB, Gulag, Gestapo, SS, and more.
