          A foreign power having far, far too much control over our economic possessions. Information is a resource; what they do with it is inconsequential, we have to stop giving it away to people simply because they’re our ‘trade partners’ right now.

              Yes. You’re phrasing that like it’s some kind of gotcha, but this whole conversation started with me pointing out that we’d just be repeating our errors with the us but versus a different imperial polity.
