Those against more aid to Ukraine say there isn’t enough “accountability”.
There has likely never been *more* accountability for US foreign assistance.
Critics should start explaining what *additional* accountability is needed. But they never do!

@Kasparov63 always gets it right: support Ukraine until its victory and don't fool yourself into negotiations with Putin.
Pu Tin, your Emperor is speaking!

1/ The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has long leveraged its burgeoning position in the global economy to pressure countries into advancing the CCP’s political agendas.

Garry Kasparov: Il faut assumer de vouloir la dfaite de la Russie

Paintbrushes didn't make fingers obsolete. They made our art more sublime, more human, our artists more capable of realizing their visions. AI automation changes the labor landscape, as tech has always done, but human creativity is increasingly paramount.
"We will see how human thinking is nothing but a bunch of matrix multiplications, and humans will be made redundant." No, AI nerd. Commoditizing cognitive grunt work via technology only makes the analog, human touch *more* valuable not less.

As for “peace,” recall one of Thomas Mann’s March 1941 BBC radio messages to Germans, warning there could never be real peace under Hitler, win or lose. For England, Hitler, and Germany simply substitute Ukraine, Putin, and Russia. avezink.livejournal.com/376950.html

I am calling on the House to demand Putin immediately stop his show trial against Vladimir Kara-Murza and set him free. @vkaramurza is a Russian patriot who is fighting against corruption in the Kremlin, standing up for freedom and denouncing Putin’s geocidal war in Ukraine.
When those of us with long experience with autocrats and thugs in power warned in 2015 that Trump represented an existential threat to the American experiment, it was dismissed as hyperbole. Now it's obvious, yet still many embrace him.
On Saturday, our community welcomed the release of Paul Rusesabagina.

That ⬆️ is true. But espionage is very much at issue here. The Snowden leaks I personally had access to made clear the CCP uses Chinese companies to stage espionage campaigns— unclear with or without executive’s knowledge. But even when they catch it, they can’t call it out.

Reupping for timeliness. I don’t think it’s helpful to scream “Ban TikTok.” It didn’t work with Huawei. I think it’s more helpful to lay out instances where the CCP (in many cases without executives’ knowledge) China’s biggest tech brands as staging grounds for espionage.

The strongest available step against Chinese belligerence is full and unequivocal support of Ukraine against Russia's invasion. Anything less will be seen, correctly, as weakness and weakness is always treated by dictators as an invitation.
"My father will come home" The best news is hearing that Paul Rusesabagina the Hotel Rwanda hero who saved thousands from Rwanda's genocide is finally being released from prison. His daughter Carine @ckanimba told me his horrible abduction and imprisonment open.substack.com/pub/renewdemoc…… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Xi's visit to Moscow showed more clearly than ever that China's prime aim is to counter the US-led west. The Ukraine war is subsidiary to this objective in Beijing's eyes. Beijing-Moscow is a new axis of authoritarianism. ft.com/content/bbaa40…

Digital surveillance via social media, data collection & sale, targeting for influence or chaos--it was all here before and will continue if TikTok is sold or banned. Protect rights & people with smart regulation. blog.avast.com/author/garry-k…
China is a bad actor and companies based in dictatorships can never be independent of the regime. Their CEOs can disappear, their products weaponized. But don't pretend TikTok is just a China issue and let Washington abdicate its role to protect Americans.
I've written a lot on this intersection of tech and human rights at my blog for @Avast , including many interviews with privacy & security experts. The innovation-regulation-privacy balance is difficult, going back to the invention of the telephone.
I have little doubt that TikTok is as toxic as its critics say, or that it is a surveillance app. Unfortunately, it's not unique to Chinese companies. Social media & privacy regulation are way behind the tech and a public always happy to trade data for services.
The free world disengaging points of leverage with China is long overdue, as it was with Russia. But political corruption and influence via lobbying and international orgs are far more of a threat than social media data they can buy legally from US brokers anyway.

This will be the choice Russia faces when defeated and ejected from Ukraine. To crawl back to Europe with concessions, accountability, and reparations or to become a gas station province of the Chinese dictatorship.
