no, rooted in Marxism. if you don't understand the nature of international aid and how it is never unconditional then lol. USAID explicitly speaks of this in discussion papers, of aids leverage role and how it can be used to exert influence over policy. what do you think the states' / imf / world banks historical activity in Latin America was about, the goodness of their hearts?

we'll give you aid but you can't have a weed or sex education other than abstinence also we get interest tia :patriot:

1) wifi hotspot poo poo
2) default video player
3) auto sign-in after update/restart
4) less (but still plenty) privacy poo poo under "windows permissions" than i expected (including "feedback" frequency)
5) contact privacy
