United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

China claims a LOT of things. Poor paper tiger 'country'.
When it comes to hacking, China is very capable. Along with the US, Russia and even North Korea (no, really), they are the main state actors.
However these days zero day exploits are more often written by private contractors (a lot in Argentina, for some reason) and then sold to nation states on discrete markets, rather than written by state actors themselves. It wasn't the NSA who gave the FBI the ability to unlock an iPhone when they couldn't compel Apple to do so through the courts.
