A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Apparently, the Chinese government brought the hammer down on Naomi for pointing out how they spy on Signal used via a third-party keyboard on phones

Big celebrity of the "maker" space. Often showed signs of protest against the CPP, while living in China. Often controversial due to appearance.

What is "maker space"? What is the CPP besides a C++ file? A Chinese agency?

They mean "makers," the kind of people into making using a variety of technologies including but not limited to woodworking, 3D printing, metalworking, leatherworking. Not usually all at once, but sometimes all at once. Incidentally you can rent a "maker space" which is just a physical space with tools to make things. Also, I think they meant CCP (Chinese Communist party).

Cpp is a misspelling of the acronym Chinese Communist party aka CCP.
