    How about I share something from my own country. What I reckon is that only some of my data goes to the US government through Google, Microsoft etc. while the Chinese government controls corporations like tencent much more than the US government controls US corporations. Besides all that, services from Microsoft and Google are much harder to avoid than for example tiktok and Huawei. So the US is getting my data no matter what, I might as well limit how much of it goes to china.




  • In Belgium landlords can’t prohibit pets. In reality they often say pets aren’t allowed anyways, but if you keep quiet until after everything is signed they can’t really do anything about it. Of course pissing off your landlord by doing something they specifically requested you avoid isn’t going to keep them on good terms, and if it’s an option, finding a home that allows them is better.

    Of course this law only applies to pets that are suitable for the space. If you keep a massive dog in a tiny studio appartment you might find yourself in legal hot water, but something like a cat should never be an issue.
