The Ruby creator is Japanese but if you want to start using it today, you don't even have to know who Matz is. The website with the documentation is in English and translated to quite a number of other languages.
It really is not the fair comparison and I get what the parent was refering to.
In the Wa community, you can speak English and we can understand English. Likewise, others must have the right to speak Chinese. This is fair to both Chinese and English users.
It is more about how the project is developed and maintained.
For example, Vue is founded by a Chinese. But the development happens in English. Issue tracker, RFC, code comments, all in English. Therefore, people around the world would know what direction the project is heading towards.
Are there laws against spam that aren't narrowly defined as email or phone spam? I'm not aware of laws against forum/wiki/social media spam. The US postal service is largely spam-funded, as is Canada Post.
Yes they do? You can install system wide Tor on android. If you are referring to the fact that phones emit signals that can be triangulated, that doesn't interfere with anonymity in and of itself.
I mean, it literally interferes with anonymity in the most fundamental way.

With a SIM card, you are by definition always tracked and identified individually. It's how the technology is designed to function. You can remove the SIM card, harden your OS, randomize your Wifi MAC but at that point you aren't really using a _cell phone_ anymore.
You could use the same argument for the radios in your home and WiFi. And anonymity is about your name. If they can locate your phone but not be used to identify you then it doesn't break anonymity.
