It would probably be better if you said the game that you wanted to do this with.

and

Private is subjective. Do you mean as solo play or with friends. Most games have options to cover both instances.

How are these illegal sanctions?

Just like Ford sold their cars in any colour you want, so long as it is black.

The CCP does not have confidence in that though, hence the way it runs the elections there.

it is false to say they’re just stealing their tech

I must be misunderstanding this comment then.

As for them being at the forefront, you would have to point to a metric. AFAIK Apple is the company that has moved to 3nm process before any other tech company. Apple’s camera are dog crap, but other than that they are streets ahead. As for being ahead in networking, there is not really such a thing. Networking standards are agreed before implementation. It is not that the signal is stronger or there is a better reception. The difference between 4g and 5g is down to coding how the signal is sent.

Every country with manufacturing ability steals tech.

This really is not the case. Companies look to steal tech not nations. Western countries play ball with each other on this one. As for how good Huawei is, how do you think they got the expertise. The west was quite happy to let them come to our universities to help them catch up. And now they are biting the hand that fed them. Not only that but they are interfering in politics of other nations. They have a campaign to intimidate citizens of other states, right up to the point of kidnapping.

So no that is not racism. That is taking a moral approach to not trust a rogue state ran by a dictator.

The Uighur’s issue is most certainly racism, xenophobia and also genocide. As much as I have a problem with that it would not be the reason I would not buy the tech. I have zero trust with a nation that actively steals from any nation it can get away with. They have no morals on where the line should not be crossed. And you want to give them access to your data. This is why countries are banning use of their tech being anywhere near government communications.

I am more than a bit wary about any tech from China. Call that tin foil hat syndrome or whatever.
