Not a foreign gov. China.
This is analogous to the diff between Ireland having nukes and Russia having nukes.
Okay, what is China going to do about me calling their president winnie the pooh or bringing up tiananmen square or whatever?
Nothing right now
Or ever, unless you go there.
..and completely avoid any and all Chinese products. Good thing their global influence isn't increasing constantly.
Please outline how your personal political opinions about china are going to affect the fact that you have a Chinese toaster. I'll wait.
So can you answer the question now that we know it's China? Why is it worse that China has user info over the US?
