This is nuts. If anything Tencent should ask 10% Chinese iphone commision to allow wechat, that is how strong the leverage is. Not having wechat in China is like not having drivers license and bank card in US.

Well if you are a well read Jew and well versed in Talmud, there is technically no contradiction. According to this certain clause and technicality, this thing is allowed according to Jewish law. You can even say I'm not disobeying this direct command from God himself coz of xxx technicality. Basically lawyer speak which is why you see a lot of Jews in law.
Wonderful religion...
Isreal is the only country in the world which passed the law in 1962, which bans the "raising, keeping or slaughtering" of swine, below is the example of exceptionlism of this law in its full glory.
Lahav’s pig breeding gained widespread notoriety because of its legal loophole, almost talmudic in its ingenuity, in which the kibbutz is exempt from the law and can rightfully raise pigs for research as a part of its Animal Research Institute. Thus, the kibbutz raises pigs for science and eats the excess, developing over the years a rather staggering excess. For many years the institute was no more than an ad hoc veterinarian research institute, which, on the scientific side, boasted little more than the successful splicing of an ibex with a goat.
Another gem, on the same subject,
There's a lot of rules to actually raise pigs in Israel. You must raise them on wood, so they won't touch the holy ground, and they must be kind of hidden. So I went there to visit and to how to understand how it happened, and I had a fixer, because you don't know where they are actually — you have to find ways, you don't have to use a camera. It looks like going on a war zone.

A lot of religions unfortunately have this problem where the guy who's best at doing his lawyering thing has the final word. Hinduism is probably the most blatant example where you have to obey the Brahmins coz they claim the vedas or whatever gives them the authority and nothing will change that.
December 26 is also the birthday of Mao Zedong. Disgusting. Perhaps China should also consider setting the H-20 to take its first flight by then.
But wait - There's more!
