You could just cross out the OSS part and say licenses.
China has a ton of copyright infringing knockoffs of anything remotely popular outside its borders. For a long time, companies like Microsoft took it as granted that the vast majority of their software running in SE Asia was likely pirated.
People don't buy Xiaomi because of their fancy tech, they buy it because it's cheap. Tech YouTuber telling people they steal that tech to make it cheap won't make people stop buying their cheap phones.
You can ask your government to take action for this IP violation by taxing those brands more, or banning them until they stop violating licenses. I'm sure they'll start caring more after that.
Actually, if you look at the custom ROM community, only my device had more than 50K official downloads from just the ArrowOS ROM 's website, and this device is actually more popular on the unofficial side so there's at least x3 more people on lineage and others ROMs - that's not a small amount of people (using arrowos as an example because they have telemetry)
So, me and many others are very angry about this and this is our first and last time getting a Xiaomi device
i.e. only the telegram update channels have 25k-65k subscribers per a single xiaomi device, let alone the whole XDA community
At least one tech YouTuber, Naomi Wu (a.k.a. RealSexyCyborg) has in fact already covered this topic and successfully got a company to comply with their GPL obligations.
Her comment[0] at the time directed at other Tech YouTubers was:
> YouTubers- you CAN make a difference by making GPL compliance
> a condition of your product reviews. I'm happy to mediate in
> Chinese if there is any miscommunication. GPL compliance means better,
> more functional, more innovative phones for everyone.
You think China is going to change their national policies and business practices because some Western YouTubers make videos about it? Unless you're like 14, I'm in absolute awe that any adult with even the most minimal understanding of geopolitics would think this is a solution.
