Is it racist to say I'd never buy a Chinese car just on principle?
Electric cars are so much simpler than ICEs...they're almost "phones with wheels"...so IF you happen to ~~"trust"~~ "buy" their phones, it's not a huge jump to cars...but it's a jump ๐ , just not on principle.
I get your point but choosing Chinese phones as a trust example is hilarious. Every Chinese phone has a backdoor straight to China.
I know, maybe trust was not the right expression. The issue is that we still buy them, even if we know they're pumped full of spyware from a country that is not an ally.
