I’d much rather have the USA as a world leader, but considering that neither if them are anywhere near that level of control, giving my data to China is the better option.
If the US has my data and the worst case happens, i.e. anything in my data labels me as a terrorist (let’s be honest, nothing else matters to the NSA, they don’t care about your day to day life), then the possibility is high that my own government gets a hint and I’m locked up pretty quickly.
If China has my data the worst case is that I can’t set foot into China, that’s it.
Both options are shit, but having their data in China means less possible harm for anyone that isn’t a Chinese or Russian citizen.
