The truth is out now.

What truth? Who talks like this and thinks it means something?

at this point, I think people have mined the prompt itself?

Would be interested in any additional info on this.

Nothing alleged about it. The main app wraps your prompt in a China-friendly one

I asked it about whether the takeover of Hong Kong was met with international criticism. First I saw an answer saying yes, and a few paragraphs of examples and elaborations.

A few minutes later the answer I already saw was replaced with "sorry, that's outside of my scope." I think with the flood of new traffic to Deepseek, they are scaling up reviews of chat content.

Realistically what is the worst thing China is doing with your private data?

Probably mapping out the extended support networks of democratic activists in Taiwan to prepare to throw them in jail after a forcible military takeover.

Never thought I would see a version of "all lives matter" but applied to web browsers

Daily reminder that Brave uses Chromium, an open source project where all the commits are approved or denied by Google devs.

I think it's a good special case thing but I don't think you're intended to host tons of stuff there as a primary account

I think the only thing you can trust is software architecture - things like E2E encryption, zero knowledge architecture, auditable code etc.

First, while the X post was not intended to be a political statement

Not intended to be a political statement? Even setting aside agreement vs disagreement, how is this (below) not a political statement?

10 years ago Republicans were the party of big business and Dems stood for the little guys, but today the tables have completely turned.

Again, regardless of whether you agree or disagree it's like a textbook example of a political statement.

Well, like anything, it depends on context. In this context, it's not crazy to be on high alert for weird politicized signals.

However, I think you made a pretty good point about its meaning in Taiwan given that this fellow is apparently from there, combined with it being his year of birth. So, context decides and in this case at least it seems pretty ordinary.
