  The concern is that even encrypted communicatons, intercepted via the heavily Chinese-tapped US telecommunications company networks, can be used to gain access to other systems. Unencrypted data, sure, that’s a legit concern. China can likely read every SMS sent to any US phone number and no one seems to care at all. Things like downgrade attacks, other man-in-the-middle attacks, and skimming SMS 2FA codes are likely possible with poorly defended systems.

  If the data it’s encrypted, then it’s more about the paranoia that China is collecting everything and planning to decrypt later with quantum processors. Not exactly a huge and urgent worry, but one day they will crack how to decrypt what they collect and will have a record of everything said online.

  Normal countries should start doing this too for US visitors so we can find out who really killed JFK.

        An onion article saying JFK was taken out by the military industrial complex. And somebody accused a gay guy of having an alias which matched a name in the Warren commission report. Coincidentally the gay dude travelled for business and at the time the CIA interviewed traveling business people for info on their travels as part of data collection. So obviously a CIA agent.

        Last of all, they did not need to fucking shoot him in public, they already had a fuck ton of classified techniques trying to take out the Cuban president.
