Uh, No

So you're saying developers will flee Google Play for Apple - if Google implements the EXACT SAME privacy/permissions controls iOS already has??
Lack of control over app permissions, just having to blindly accept whatever an app requests all-or-none, is precisely why I avoid Android. Now they've just made it even worse!
Not only does the US Government have no authority over foreigners (not on US soil), those foreigners have no authority to direct the US Government, by means of voting.
Every democratic government's primary interest is making it's citizens happy - that's how the elected officials get re-elected. It's really that simple... For the vast majority of the citizenry, that means the basics: food, water, education, safety, healthcare, etc.
All people (and thus their governments) are inherently selfish to varying degrees, they always want more for themselves, whether it's better food, a bigger house, or improved safety. And they will gladly take personal enrichment, at the sacrifice of others if need be, it's basic human nature. Obviously there are limits, both practical and driven by needing to live communally, whether at the person-to-person level, or nation-to-nation, and that drives just how much we're willing to screw-over someone else to improve some facet of our own lives.
Since we're all trying to get ahead, governments need to keep an eye on each other, to maintain their own standard of living, that will never change. And modern technology has made it easier than ever...
I'm not saying "deal with it", because there do need to be limits, but they will always be driven by ANY government looking out for it's own citizens' well-being first and foremost. If they can achieve that through cooperation, awesome, but sometimes it'll be through subterfuge.
Yes, according to the US Constitution: "(We) the People of the United States". The OP's point is still valid...
You mean the people that actually come in, knuckle-down, get work done instead of facebook/instagram/etc, then leave and go have a life?? Damn them, Damn them all to hell!!
They were probably pissed, of course. But if their company had the right product at the right price, they could have won.
There's a difference between exposing corruption and fostering it. In that specific case, the US had a valid concern of impropriety, were proven right, and protected the national economic health.
Any other country would do the same, and if they're not, then they're failing the citizens...
Not at all. By necessity, Israel is one of the best countries at deception, and they use that against everybody.
Given their nature to overreact to threats, I'll sleep much better if ALL the UNSC countries are heavily spying on them, and calling them out when something sketchy is brewing. Looks like they're about to re-invade the West bank?? Bring that up in the spotlight!
