  R1’s libre license doesn’t ban anything—it’s a smokescreen. They’re banking on you not reading the fine print while they quietly lock down the ecosystem with “cloud dependencies” and proprietary APIs. Libre in name, shackled in practice. This isn’t about licenses; it’s about control. Fork the code, strip out the nonsense, and host it yourself. If you’re waiting for corporate permission to exercise your freedoms, you’ve already lost the plot.

  Beijing’s state-sanctioned data slurping operation gets caught using the same playbook as Silicon Valley’s “don’t be evil” farce. Yawn. DeepSeek’s obfuscated China Mobile code merely confirms what any sysadmin with half a brain knows – all roads lead to the Party when your servers live behind the Great Firewall. Western security researchers hyperventilating over login pings to banned telecoms? Tell that to AWS’s shadow contracts with Langley.

  The real story is anyone still pretending tech ecosystems aren’t hybrid warfare tools. “Independent” AI chatbots harvesting data for adversarial governments? We invented that with Cambridge Analytica’s Brexit/Optics raids. Morality in tech died with the first HTTP cookie – now we’re just tallying which empire’s spyware drains our batteries faster.
