I wonder what lessons the United States government has learned from this event.
If a war breaks out between the U.S. and China, what policies (if any) would the government potentially implement differently to its residents of Chinese descent?

For the last several decades (my lifetime) it's always seemed that no matter where in the World you might be, if the country is not an enemy of USA, there's a chance you [I mean, a person, not me specifically] could be whisked away to perpetual imprisonment in USA, for something perhaps as trivial as copyright infringement and the local government would just kinda shrug.
Perhaps it's closer to failure to follow due process, rather than habeus corpus.
Maybe that's not a balanced view of USA's projection of soft power. It mirrors the fear some in USA have of rogue cops.
Does it feel to you like the World, or just USA, had improved here? Tribalism seems as strong as ever.
"it could happen again"
any asian american (chinese or otherwise) would tell you the same. most others would insist that it's impossible.
i don't think it's a coincidence that scalia is italian and has this opinion.
In cases it also includes dual nationals. I guess they're declaring 2 classes of Americans. Way to go.
The report was widely published and cause mass hysteria against what was perceived at treacherous Japanese Americans.
Unfortunately, the media really pushed that narrative.
Nothing. There are no regrets there but now that things are stable (kinda), it's a good idea to have remorse to calm down people.

That will depend on the perception of the US government for these people, for the popular opinion and for the revenge mentality level of the current ruling class. Remember, this happened very recently. They were all labeled "Oligarchs" whatever that means. They were not oligarchs yesterday or when they bought the properties? But now they are "enemies" so everything is justified as such. And the people applauded!
