China will now have blackmail material on Americans:
China experts and former intelligence officials are raising concerns about user data privacy following the acquisition of Grindr, the world’s largest gay dating application, by a Chinese technology firm. The Chinese government, they say, could be in a position to demand sensitive and embarrassing details on the lives of millions of non-Chinese citizens.
This week, the Kunlun Group completed a full buyout of Grindr, a gay, bi, trans, and queer dating app that claims 3.3 million daily users. The Chinese firm bought 60 percent of the company in Jan. 2016 for $93 million and has now acquired the remaining stake for $152 million, according to stock filings. Grindr announced that Kunlun executives will take over leadership of the company.
I don’t even like the government having ID photos of me. I just assume someday they will be on a wanted poster for political crime think. The idea of putting everything about my life onto the internet, where it can be accessed by anyone is just insane. Bet your ass the Chinese will be running facial recognition on that gay-sex-app database, comparing it to faces of US government employees, politicians, business leaders, and spooks, to see who might be able to be compromised.
These things have a way of being much bigger than you would ever dream, given the size of government budgets. I would love to see what the Chinese have accumulated. If this was US government, I would just assume they would run all the photos against a massive database of surveillance camera footage taken from the poorly secured, backdoor-filled, internet-enabled Chinese home surveillance camera systems they have flooded the US markets with. I’m sure they are mining social media like facebook and twitter, and God only knows what else they have grabbed from universities, medical data companies, stolen US databases, and on and on.
Keep your life as closely held as you can. You never know, given what is coming, when you may want to disappear from the matrix.
Tell everyone about r/K Theory, because they already know everything else about you
Combined with ongoing PRC influence operations and the OPM hack, this is very bad. Hopefully, there aren’t too many federal agents using this. Though that might be too much to ask for, given the state of things.
Well, I suppose if we are forced to kiss trannies by Big Brother, then no one is going to have any blackmail leverage on “just” a homo. “Am I gay? Hello! Does a wild pope shit on a bear? I’m here, I’m queer, get used to it, Wing Wang!’ Be sure and read that with a really outrageous queen voice.
The WaPo article makes for a good reading comprehension test to see if someone is a red-pilled chad or dumbass soy rabbit.
“What is assured is that – unlike in a democracy — if the Chinese government demands this kind of data from Chinese companies, the companies have little recourse but to comply.”
LOL. Pay no attention to the Obama behind the NSA unmasking or FISA kangaroo courts. The Deep State propaganda is so pervasive.
But considering the source — the WaPo is the Deep State mouthpiece, after all — and that they actually mention the OPM breach (one of the worst things to happen on Obama’s watch) in the beginning tells me that numerous members of the FedGov are compromised. The article tells them all they need to know; meanwhile, key details are downplayed for the normies, e.g., the OPM data includes clearance investigations, which capture anything an adversary might use to blackmail a spook.
Like they couldn’t have hacked it , or bought the data direct.
Sad news. One even more sad one – the fact someone in US still may be compromised just because being a gay.
