Thanks for posting the link. I know that footage from other conflicts from different times are often circulated inappropriately and are used for misinformation. You’re correct in saying that I don’t know for certain whether or not any particular source is genuine.
I am from Lemmygrad, and had not seen this exact response from China, however I don’t necessarily need to agree with everything the Chinese government says. In 1979 they didn’t like calling their own invasion of Vietnam an invasion, instead opting in favour of the term “the self-defensive counterattack against Vietnam”.
I found a link to a similar article except it’s from an Indian media outlet and you don’t need to register an account to read the whole thing. Leaving this in case anyone is interested.
Literally within 3 hours of your comment.

As a Scottish person, I’ve been tripped up by the slur filter only twice. Once was when I used the c word to describe Dominic Raab (I still stand by that), and the other was when I used twit by with an A instead of an I. I genuinely had no idea that it actually meant vagina! I’ve heard it since I was a child and had no idea what it actually meant.
Still, you can’t really complain about it, it’s more of a trivial thing to people who aren’t being offensive.
If security is that important then why wouldn’t apple make the phone display a pop-up or splashcreen to the user informing them of the modification, whilst still allowing the phone to be used? There is no need to render the device unusable, just leave the choice up to the user. I think it is much more likely that these measures are taken to monopolise the repair of iPhones and overcharge customers. I think talking about this as a life-threatening problem is quite overdramatic.
