    While flawed, the US is still a democracy. China is an authoritarian regime with basically 0 privacy rights, concentration camps, slave labor, dark sites for dissidents, and mass surveillance that goes far beyond anything the West has to offer. They basically brutally massacred their own student democracy movement at the Tiananmen Square protests.

    Moreover, I feel like the impact of Chinese surveillance is personally less on me than American (companies). But I’ll concede that this is subjective

    What impact had PRISM on you personally?
