Nobody hoovers up more data than the US.

Remember when Elon remotely unlocked that cybertruck recently and accessed the cameras?

We have roughly three million ways to say "US bad" right now, and you pick a less than true one.

US government data collection is not on the scale of China. The US is limited in what it gets from companies. China is absolutely not.

Yes, the US should absolutely have more data protection laws. The EU is better. China is absolutely not.

Nobody hoovers up more data than the US.

The US can't even unlock an iPhone without calling in 3rd parties. EVERY Chinese made device collects data, and every Chinese business gives full access to the Chinese government. The US government does collect data but it's no where near the scale of the Chinese.

Remember when Elon remotely unlocked that cybertruck recently and accessed the cameras?

He unlocked a device made by a company he owns, running software they designed on a network they operate. All that shows is that Tesla's vehicles are not properly secured and remote access can be abused by Tesla employees.
