Question that I’ve been mulling over recently: My threat model dictates that I’m more likely to be surveilled by the US government than by the Chinese government. We can also assume that the Chinese government is not going to cooperate with the US government in any investigations of potential activist activity.
Would it not be best, then, to use a Chinese-made phone that, even though we know that information is going to China, we can also assume that any backdoors in the system are unknown to the US Gov?
I’m interested in everyone’s take on this.
Yes. US and the West are the cause of our need to defend our selves digitally. Besides, even Chinese Corps are better, as they can’t utilize much information about you.
