First post on the donald. While I know everyone's focused on the major story by the New York Post regarding the Biden emails, it's important that other commie bullshit doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

E-petitions don't count as self-promotion, right?

I originally this posted this on kotakuinaction2.win but it didn't get any real traction. Let's see if things improve here.

Link is intentionally broken to prevent referrers telling change.org that signatoires are coming from a wrongthink site. Copy & paste the link into the URL bar of your browser and remove the spaces from the TLD. Don't repair this link when posting elsewhere unless the site isn't labelled by lefties and such as a hatesite. That includes certain subreddits due to the URLs. Clearing your browser cache or opening this URL in a different browser from what you normally use might also be a good idea to lower the risk of cache reading via javascript.

There's lot's of information in the petition page and the whole thing can't be fit on a single post here. All of it is sourced. Some key highlights worthy of note:

  • Two of Tencent's most heavily invested gaming companies, Riot Games and Epic Games, have each been caught harvesting massive amounts of user data, each by a similar method to one another.
  • Tencent has dozens of massive overseas datacenters, including some in the U.S.
  • Sony has been assisting China for years to try and help them become a major gaming influence through an initiative known as the "China Hero Project".
  • Sony's other pozzed divisions bleeding into the PlayStation division is largely due in part to a "One Sony" policy.
  • Tencent is involved with Sony's music label through a joint partnership, "Liquid State", and because of "One Sony", has a vector through which they can affect the other branches.
  • Sony admitted in their latest annual corporate report that they harvest and analyze lots of Playstation user data, which Tencent could potentially have access to.
  • Reddit took an investment from Tencent in early 2019, and the censorship has only gotten much worse ever since. (Most of you should already know this, but it's still important.)
  • CFIUS has both the authority and most likely the legal grounds to force Tencent to sell off its investments in tech and media companies. That includes no just American companies but also any foreign companies that do business in the U.S., such as Sony.
  • The executive order against Huawei's equipment can also be applied to the PS5, given the information explained in the petition.

It told me that it needed five signatures for this, but it might need more given this info is a prime candidate for censorship. Either way, once this has enough signatures for it to be publicly visible on the site without needing the exact URL it'll be much easier for this info to spread.
