This meme is a bit dishonest because its about Chinese government harvesting this data not about companies harvesting it. Both are bad but ones substantially worse.

Yeah, if China wants the data of Americans they should buy it from American companies, not harvest it themselves.

They're not mad about leaking data, they're mad that China is drinking their milkshake.

American companies have way more power over my life than the Chinese government
