I recently bought a new phone from OnePlus and when looking at the specs online, one of the cons was: may leak data to Chinese government.

I hope not, they might find out I'm a commie or something

I find it funny when libs say not to buy Chinese phones because they "may" send data to the CPC (because they connect to the internet from time to time, so scary!)

What can the CPC do worse than my own government can't? Like you should be more scared of the government you live under, not one that's some 3000 miles away or whatever.

Don't buy Apple, it leaks data to the CIA.

This.

And Libs are so Apple loving that it had to fear monger to keep the loot going by keeping Huawei at bay.

The Chinese police might look at your DMs to see if you've talked about having an abortion... oh wait

3000 miles away or whatever

Fun fact, the closest distance from mainland USA to China is still over 7000 miles, the lower 48 is around 3000 miles coast to coast. (Don't worry, I totally understand the rest of the comment, I just figured I'd provide additional context to point out just how preposterous the original joke is)

Honestly I would rather Xi read my texts than all the feds Google is probably selling my data to.

I'm just like, if the CPC is spying on my shit, then that's just gonna be good for me if I ever decide to try and flee to there lol.

building up a rep for the eventual defection to the PRC

I paid 250€ for my current Xiaomi and I love it. It's ridiculous how good the phone is compared to its cheap price. No way I will stop using Chinese phones (especially since the CIA is a lot scarier than the CPC)

I love how, with the Snowden leaks and more, we know definitively that the US government is collecting all our data but people are super scared right now that China might be spying on them.

One thing's for sure: capitalism seems to be miles ahead of any socialist country when it comes to propagandizing their citizens. Because the best propaganda is the kind that you don't even know is there.
