'America's gene giant harvests data from millions of women worldwide' would be an interesting topic for discussion. As it is we know, as the Hong Kong protesters know, that the CCP runs every aspect of China's activities. So nothing of critical significance happens in China without the knowledge and say-so of the CCP. Clearly that's not analogous to the the situation in the US. Why do they want this data? What are they going to do with it? Maybe they just love collecting data. Is this exercise anymore significant than the similar operations carried out by other countries? And why?
