With India’s demographics (~1.8 billion by 2050) and their wide adoption of the internet & use of the English language, pretty much any popular platform that doesn’t explicitly exclude Indians will be dominated by them in the coming decades. If people think Western & Chinese brigading is bad, wait until the Indians start dominating that space; any opinions that run contrary to Indian interests will be down voted / reported / cancelled.

What a bleak future for the internet. I wonder will we all have geo internet firewalls in the future.
Whoever can make reliable custom geoblocking software is gonna be a billionaire.
It's amazing how China is ahead of the curve in these things.
Editor: now that I think about it, Japan also does this. Many websites you cannot access without Japanese IP. I used to think they were jerks for doing this but I guess now I know why.

So long as state/country exists, there will always be border either physically on land and sea, or in cyber world. Internet firewall is a natural thing contrary to the western advocation of "totally borderless cyber world". The west advocate that is only because they had upper hand and they can freely goes in and out other countries. It is as if Chenghis Khan advocating "no wall and fortress building" to Europeans.
We're in Cyberpunk 2077, China's GFW is the Blackwall. And the Indians are the rogue AIs outside the Blackwall.
Try HDR mode if the camera has it. Most phone camera today has it, but rarely in purposefully-built cameras though.AVIC and COMAC booths at Paris Air Show:

GCAP is a tripartite program. If UK withdraws from it, Italy and Japan will need a new partner.
Probably not. Zohran Mamdani is your typical controlled opposition. He would not be allowed to run if he were the real deal.
Why the US has a higher GDP than China:
The Economist asks: China is offering the world open-source software - but at what cost?
World is nothing but Humans, isn't it? The Moon or Mars are not really world.

1 and 2 are huge red flags for someone being stupid though... He might not be quite as stupid as the harshest jokes make him out to be but he's definitely at least kinda stupid judging by a lot of the things he says (outside of the Iran/Israel conflict).
