Shopee will happily take your money from their website. But if you don't install and use their app, surrender your privacy, attach your biometrics and phone number, and use an "approved" model of phone, then all support, contracts, warranties, refunds, etc are VOID.
And because most people happily comply, those who don't want to be victimized are instead considered the criminals by society.

No luck challenging a false charge from #Chipotle on the credit card. They swiped us for the folks ahead of us and for us too. The main lesson is to stop going there. Sorry to lose that fifty dollars. #ConsumerRights
@randahl Innovation, the Musk Way:

If the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) can't exist, then others trying to bring it down using "authoritarianism is bad" as justification are demonstrating their own form of control, which I see as a form of authoritarianism.
