    You are right, that if US is destined for war on China, then there are clear security risks. It is a horrible destiny that no one in US should think they have the slightest hope of winning, and then thinking it is not actual destiny could be a rational hope.

      I’m talking about Canada and not about a war.

      During peace times it is not in Canada’s interest for China to know where all our politicians are, it is not in Canada’s interest for China to know where where Canadian military and law enforcement are. It’s not in Canada’s interest for any entity to be able to tell where specific people or groups of people are at any time.

      De-spying should not only apply to Chinese cars but all cars and mobile devices.

        During peace time, they will not want to assassinate anyone, or worry about soldier movements.

        The US has that power. They spy on allies. Insufficient enthusiasm for the empire can get you JFKd. China can’t reach us as easily.

        Yes. We’d have better chance of putting up firewalls/protections/open source solutions without data collection on Chinese EVs than domestic ones.
