Don't worry the illegally operating Chinese police station in your city will just come and get you. No need to be exported, you get to be questioned and held by a foreign officer without any direct oversight in your own country!

The point being that the US even if aggressive uses the proper channels to pursue action against entities it believes to be dangerous?
How is that worse than China illegally and secretively doing the exact same thing within your own borders they promised to respect.

God I was hoping the Tankys wouldn't run here full speed after reddit shut down, but looks like that ship already sailed.

America is guilty of everything Americans accuse China about.

its almost like foreign governments collecting information about your population is a bad thing for your people and your government, or something.

America would lose all standing in global politics and the global economy if they invaded Canada without very strong reason. If the US started a war with China tomorrow, half the world, Canada included, would either do nothing or join them.
They're talking about extradition
Wtf does that have to do with anything? Were talking about large scale spying not infringing on American copyrights.

Yeah, the US is really gunna come after you because....? Right, there is no way your government would give you over without actual evidence.

If you believe your country would hand over any citizen to the US just because the US said so, your issue is with your country, not the US. the problem with China spying on the west through TikTok is that they can use that information to manipulate the population without stepping foot on foreign soil. And they're already doing this with TikTok. The content Chinese users get vs the content western users get is so drastically different that they're not even the same platform. This int about extradition, it's about information and control. And while you could argue that the US uses these platforms to control other countries, and I would point out that Russia is clearly much more effective at using them, and they don't even own them.

you're entire argument is that america collecting canadian citizens information is worse than china because china can't extradite you... because they're under such poor terms with western governments that none of them would extradite a national to china. and this argument ignores 2 things, 1, the evidence that these countries legally subpoenaed from these corporations needs to be significant for any of the western nations to extradite to any of each other. 2, the fact that china has such a poor reputation on the national stage that these countries will not cooperate with tiny bullshit their citizens might get into with the CCP. you have to be dumb blind and stupid to think extradition is the issue here.
