So how are American companies any different then Chinese? Everyone always says Chinese companies have to listen to their government. Never got how American companies would be any different.
One is Chinese (bad, stinky) one is American (good, freedom).
Both are authoritarian shitholes that violate the freedoms of its citizens.
They're not different at all - the CLOUD Act (2018) and FISA courts already gave the US govt near-complete access to American tech companies' data regarldess of where it's physically stored, we just don't talk about it as much as we do with China.
Until this abomination of a law, the US was different. But the GOP is quickly adopting every fascist idea they come across.
Press X to doubt.
It’s like he selectively forgot about the Snowden leaks
