I'm. I'm going to disagree. All the antihuman inventions like AI and palanter recently seems to be coming from domestic geniuses

and china has almost all messaging through government controlled app wechat, qr payments everywhere, active tracking for social credit score, and blocked internet traffic for specific websites. they are definitely big on surveillance...

if anything they have more incentive to add backdoors to phones going overseas, look at what happened with huawei
