Is anyone actually surprised by this?

    I feel safer knowing that my data is not in a country where the company can use it against me

      Where is this country that can’t use your data against you?

          Exactly. I’m queer. I’m not scared of China, even if they were doing the same thing the US currently is. Because only one of those actually effects the rights I have and what I do in my day-to-day.

          I do not understand how the average person does not realize that.

            Countries share information though. And it is not below a fascist US to give China some nice trade deals for detailed information on queer US-Americans. Nor is it for China to accept such a deal.

            Well, this is definitely a valid reason, and I really hope you stay strong and take your country back sooner than later.

            I was more thinking about active manipulation and disinformation campaigns. They work by getting as much data from people as possible to find which people need to be targeted how to get the results you want.
