- StavrosK 8y agoYes, but the question is "who do you prefer spying on you", not "who do you want as a superpower".
- jexah 8y agoUltimately, I disagree. If we are using the assumption that information is power, and the purpose of spying is to protect national interests (even if that only means the interests of the government in power), then I'd prefer the US spying on me. They already are and have been for years. It makes me uncomfortable, but if the US stopped spying the Chinese sure as hell wouldn't, and so I can't rightly advocate for less spying from the US. I call it a necessary evil.
