You wonder if the Chinese government is doing the same thing?
I guess the answer is technically 'no', insofar that the NSA isn't doing anything like what the Chinese government is doing. I feel weird giving you these links, because frankly you should know more about this than I, but here you go anyway:

- madaxe_again 12y agoThis is how indoctrination works. You aren't aware of what you're not aware of. You see the world through a glass, darkly.
