Can American companies sue China for being blocked there?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

They can probably try, but much like this case, it's very unlikely it will get anywhere.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

Why would they? Car manufacturers have sued Chinese state companies for producing identical rip-offs and Chinese courts invariably rule that they look nothing alike whatsoever. Suing China for blocking you is not only going to have 0% chance of success, it also carries a decent chance of being told that you're not blocked at all and it must be your problem.

I hope they try. They will bankrupt themselves if they do.

Please please please please please

Yeah, it's about as likely to work as claiming to be a sovereign citizen and attempting to "travel" through a military base with weapons.

I would like to justify spending money on Warframe again

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Go ahead. Also, they totally are.

Bahaha ok

Honestly, why? Like I know the DoD doesn't ever seem to need justification for anything, but I feel this, considering its a pretty minimal impact designation outside reputation, really should at least have a vague "this reason amongst our list of reasons 10000, figure it out"

Why wait?

Don't even have to read the article to find out, it's in the fucking headline.
