I'm honestly more concerned about the immediate effects today in the USA than what China can do with it. And with the slippery slope effect in the United States.
Today it is "think of the children" tomorrow it is "prevent terrorist attacks", eventually it is "citizen why do you have union organizing material on your iCloud uploads?"
And we've seen the big tech giants steadily morphing into quasi governmental agencies and we've been steadily giving up privacy rights over the decades. I don't think its a huge leap from where we are now to having Apple/Google/Amazon devices that are monitoring what we say AND reporting on suspicious activity. Particularly when combined with those companies wanting to own your private time and link all your accounts with them.
