    I know at least one FAANG company that had (has? don’t know) a policy of not using any hardware that was ever used in travel to China. If you had to go there on a business trip, you got a loaner laptop (and got your account severely restricted) and when you got back they wiped and discarded the laptop.

      Tech, military, politics, banking, a lot of industry and business sectors treat China like that. That cuntry is a fucking black hole for anything regarding security, privacy or fucking freedom. You have to take precautions like that. If you don’t you’re an idiot.
