    There is no way to completely protect ourselves from cyber attacks, but at least we can avoid software with an “opinion.”

    Well… everybody has an opinion. It’s inevitable as thinking beings. The difference is whether people are willing to act upon it.

    There are many projects with a Code Of Conduct out there that could be interpreted as very left leaning. There are projects with the express purpose of fighting subjugation or helping journalists’ ability to report on political topics. Signal is an example of such a project. Are those projects to be avoided too?

        How does this tool translate “Taiwan is de-facto an independent country that should follow its own path, rather than be integrated to the mainland.” to Chinese (simplified)?
