        Thank goodness data collection companies would never sell or share data with each other

        Are you suggesting it’s better on Chinese servers? Guessing someone likes TikTok a little more than they like global stability

          I don’t use TikTok. I do however see a lack of leverage a government on the other side of the world would have over me. If the US gave a shit about data security then they wouldn’t allow all its domestically sold cars to have all that user telemetry in the first place.

            You’re thinking pretty small if you can’t imagine how it’s bad for a foreign government to surveil a population.

              It’s being pragmatic. I don’t want any data to be transmitted to any server just as much you I assume. If that’s not gonna happen then at least China won’t be likely to share what it has with the US government and would have a smaller influence over my life compared to what the US would do.
