    I'd rather the Chinese know about my hemorrhoids than the NSA because what the hell is China gonna do about it.

    This is my big thing. Even if every single thing the west claims about China were true, I’d still rather China have access to my data than the US, if for no other reason than “China can’t send cops to my door, the US can”

      It's weird how many people I've made this exact point to but still go "nah, it's different, those dastardly CCP have some scheme"

      People IRL, people on reddit-logo, tech YouTubers telling people to avoid chinese stuff even if you can flash open firmware on it, etc etc.
