And? In my book, both the USA/corporate style of surveillance and the Chinese way are bad and need to be defeated. Don't buy the rhetoric that you have to choose a side in a fight between these two bullies. We can argue on the one that uses its surveillance for the worst, we can argue on the rights that users have to disassemble and protect their devices on either side. The point is that we need tool to protect our freedoms, because they are attacked by powerful actors, like China. And indeed, being China's competitor does not automatically makes USA a champion of privacy and user rights.
