Are iOS app developers usually considered rivals of the Department of Defense?
Or is it only the ones that work for the PLA?
They didn’t designate all Chinese iOS developers, they singled a few out. Unless you think the DoD is trolling, they must have a reason for accusing this specific app developer.

For an extreme example, someone from my family had breast cancer a few years back and the largest item on her bill for over two years of treatment was a few bucks for the food she got at the hospital.
I had emergency gallbladder surgery and 2 nights in the hospital… $16,000.
USA USA USA!
From the article:
Several of the apps traced back to Qihoo 360, a firm declared by the Defense Department to be a “Chinese Military Company."
Pretend it is just a boring TV and use an OSMC box or some other HTPC solution.
There is very little you can do to the default OS other than not give it access to the Internet.
Mate, I think you mean rubbish tip
Luckily, we technology enthusiasts are all special snowflakes and don’t engage in anything as banal as copying other people.
Same.
It’s also likely that Google will use/require manifest v3 to access some of their services (like YouTube) in order to more strictly apply DRM and prevent adblockers/third party players. That hasn’t happened yet, but it’s the kind of enshittification that these companies like to do.
The consequences of v2 ending is that you should use a non-Chromium-based browser, like Firefox or one of it’s forks.
So brave
We’re just waiting for the Rust re-write
Does Bazzite have a new enough KDE Plasma and Wayland to do Wayland HDR? (works in GE-Proton10-1+)
Oh you’re right, it was his deep and enduring relationship with Donald Trump, as we all know they’re BFFs, and not the $250 million dollars he donated.
Anti-AI people attempting to understand subtext:
Yeah, that’s why Elon Musk is well known for his ability to form and maintain many meaningful relationships…
One of the things I liked about Blizzard was that they never tried to use fondant. It was all buttercream…
Until Activision made them start mixing fiberglass into the frosting to cut costs
None of that addresses the company at issue.
There are several Chinese developers involved in this investigation.
If the DoD was “designating every rival as a military organization” then why are they singling out specific Chinese developers instead of designating them all as a “Chinese Military Company”? It isn’t because they “have to comply with local data regulations”, all companies have to do that. All Chinese companies have to do that and not all Chinese companies are designated by the DoD as a Military Company.
So, why is this one specific company singled out? Probably because it works for the PLA, as the DoD says.
Your argument is basically “The DoD is lying” which isn’t supported by any evidence in this case. “Trust me bro” from a random social media user isn’t exactly a credible source.
