hotaru251 thisisaname said: Or if they paid their taxes, instead of structuring the business not too. thats entirely different issue. if the nation/business is so high on ai/datacenters this is incentive to build up high speed infrastructure…and as much as I ahte them if this is what it takes to get the fiber we were promised then i am all for it becasue even after the fad dies we'd still have a better & faster network infrastructure.

3tank They also like to embellish aside from stealing someone else's progress. Reply

Pierce2623 I just wonder how they came up with the claim that 72TB would take a year to transfer over public internet. That’s pure BS. I don’t even have fiber and I can download 100GB games in a few minutes…. Reply

RobtheRobot This will make China the most powerful nation in the world. They'll have a totally secure government run network and all the resources and more to hack the hell out of the west and destabilise any country they want. They've done what the west should have done, and totally committed to the future of communications systems, regardless of the cost, for the future security of the country, instead of drip feeding progress at a glacial rate to maintain their rich lifestyles. It's the perfect time to unveil the progress they've made, after Trump has totally destroyed the west's ability to trade, cut off China's help and given control of the west's hardware stocks to puerile AI projects.
