The world’s largest internet companies are either in China or USA (except for a few in Japan)

China’s strategy has helped it in the following-
- protect it’s citizen’s data from foreign data collection
- helped safeguard the industrial secrets of it’s own corporations
- create a domestic ecosystem that benefits it’s own entrepreneurs and investors
- created basic infrastructure for resisting cyber warfare (et Stuxnet virus)
Rest of the non Chinese World has now the following ignominy-
- Most of profits from IPOs, Ads flow to US companies
- US Govt arm spy in active collaboration with US companies including gathering industrial secrets for trade negotiations
- Almost zero non Chinese non American Internet Infrastructure
- built a monopoly of California led companies across rest of world
- led to brain drain of top technical talent to USA
- Great ecosystem of investors and tech in USA- to the detriment of all other countries
Internet is the new opium, and after getting the rest of the world addicted- USA law makers are abandoning core principles like net neutrality and opting for unrestricted warrant less spying , as well as preparing inroads for cyber attacks
China is correctly safeguarding the future interests of it’s citizens- while the rest of the world is now a cyber colony mostly occupied by USA
Quo Vadis?
