China has really amazing geography. It's just a shame that you have a slightly higher chance of being disappeared there than most other asian tourist destinations.

The fb app literally keeps the phone in audio streaming mode by playing a blank audio stream so it can maintain a constant background state. There were articles posted about it years ago.

All digital money is pretend digital money. Money isn't even real, only debt is real.

Some would be concerned that unionization would balloon the cost of game development, but I'd gladly pay an extra 15 or 20 bucks to know that some soulless executives didn't get to exploit the devs as much. Plus any unionized environment is going to be a more comfortable place to work, and that makes a real difference in the quality of the final release.

The difference is that the Chinese government asks for it literally every day on a second-by-second basis.
It's a data farming app. That's why it exists.
