I never said it’s just a way out of poverty, the world is more complex than that.
But to address your point China is still a developing country. It’s also a rich country. It’s weird.
Chinese companies compete with US companies, so of course they steal from them. Just like US companies steal from their competitors. When our companies do it, they just call it competitive intelligence.
No, I’m afraid not. In America there are laws against stealing shit, look at what happened to the Apple Watch over the past few weeks. Or the billions Adobe paid to look at Figma’s IP.
I hope you spend decades creating something new and exciting only to have someone else come along and steal it. I’m sure you’ll shrug it off 🤷 and say they were just competing (since now you’ve said it’s not poverty driven).
And the point was there are steep consequences to stealing. Unlike China parading around like they’re some kind of divine power when they just steal shit all day long.
Sorry if I misunderstood your argument, I said that US companies also steal and you said “no, I’m afraid not”. I’m not sure why you brought up enforcement or consequences? As I said I don’t think it’s a crime with any real negative consequence, so the differences in US and Chinese punishments don’t seem relevant.

What’s the next goalpost you’re going to move?
Wait so because two major US companies were caught stealing IP US companies don’t steal?
Edit:
After already making millions on it, being the first to market, developing a prestigious position - I’d be fine.
You made this dumb claim, not me.
