    The whataboutism doesn’t help. It’s a wrong practice regardless of nationality. But since the house and senate is bought by the corporations, at the very least ban those who you can.

      It’s not a whataboutism when that’s the other choice. This isn’t out of left field. I can buy Chinese data scraping, Japanese data scraping, Korean data scraping, German data scraping, or American data scraping.

      Right now Germany actually wins that contest because GDPR just might have an impact.

      A whataboutism would be me talking about American labor practices in farming. Not great, but also not relevant.
