China's effort to reduce the role of IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, Qualcomm and Apple in China in 2015-2016 as part of reducing foreign influence in key tech sectors
04/21/2016
A bigger role for Huawei, Alibaba and Tencent in the internet and tech industry in China under the Xi Jinping government by 2016. This is part of Jinping's directive for "positive voices that promote healthy, positive culture that is a force for good." Apple iBooks and iTunes stores are shut down as part of this directive.

China shuts down Apple services iTunes Music and iBooks store to promote local companies and local content
04/21/2016
In an effort to implement president Xi Jinping's policy of reducing the influence of western companies such as IBM, Cisco, Microsoft, Qualcomm in China's core industries, more restrictive policies and efforts to get the companies to share technology were introduced in 2015. Apple was relatively an exception. In April 2016 China's ministry responsible for internet and culture shut down Apple services for books and music. Apart from favoring local companies Huawei, Alibaba, Tencent, this reduces foreign culture's influence in China, a policy favored by the government to maintain what it sees as "positive influence," by local providers.

Poetry of a former Foxconn Worker Vividly Evokes Alienation of Factory Life
BusinessWeek 11/04/2014
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
