You don't think that if the Chinese government is worried about a foreign company doing this, that they themselves wouldn't try to take advantage and do it?

Edit: And specifically, you can track their location. You can get surveillance of where they go, and ya you might be able to record conversations. TikTok has been banned from multiple countries government devices

Yup. Scapegoat china. Every country is spying on their population. What difference does it make if it's china versus Australia or UK or France.

Don't talk about national security outside a locked secure room. Don't think that's changed. Since there are literally spies all over the place. All personnel with high security clearance should be treating all areas as under surveillance.

Now if you mean average Joe. Who cares. If it's not china it's your car manufacturer or Google or apple.

How are you communicating right now? All this is being sent to someone. If it's of no importance it gets binned.

What are you specifically scared off ?

You last comment is mega ultra dumb. Your smartphone already does this. It's a bloody feature. Car is worse at tracking. Phone is far better.
