There isn't even a remote equivalence between 'a few doorbells which may, in some cases be used by police' to the 360 information control that the CCP has implemented. 'Surveillance Capitalism' of the Facebook type is equally as mundane: nobody is actually harmed by the fact that Facebook knows a lot about you. Facebook feeds people garbage information, which is arguably harm, but they'd do that anyhow. If Facebook's was only allowed to collect a fragment of information relative to what they do today - nothing would change. The world wouldn't skip a beat. Meanwhile, the failure of CCP's information controls, would probably mean regime change within 5 years.
