Comment on 'Eyes Everywhere': Congress Is About to Vote to Expand Mass Surveillance of Americans, Experts Warn
LWD@lemm.ee 6 months agoAbsolutely. I 100% prefer the Chinese to have all my data. I am a nothing person with no political power so if China wants to surveil me and train datasets with my data, cool. Because the alternative is the US and five eyes having that data and I absolutely do not want that.
Unfortunately it makes you look like the crazy uncle in the tinfoil hat if you try to bring it up. It’s so outlandishly crazy like a Hollywood movie people don’t believe it’s real.
It only makes you look crazy because the useful idiots have been duped into defending their ruling class.
It’s okay when Americans spy on you. It’s not okay when Chinese spy on you.
It’s also okay for the American government to lie about spying on you and make whoever reveals the extent of that spying public enemy #1.
I never take anyone seriously when I see them bitching about Huawei being Chinese spyware.
Like, bro, where have you been since 9/11?
Of course, the useful idiots chomp at the bit whenever something related to China comes out. Yet they’re radio silent when the same damn shit is being said about the US.

Indeed, it’s useful to China for blackmail, but they’d have a much harder time rolling me up in the US than the US government. And it’s likely hardly worth the effort to the extent they might try.
