Yeah it is similar, but not the same (at least not yet).
China is a one-party state, and the government has control over private enterprise. If you are a Chinese company, the PRC ultimately has control of it, and that means the Chinese military has access to anything you have access to, if they want it.
This is on a different level than anything Snowden released.
Snowden released the fact that the major internet companies in the US literally have full time CIA staff and locked rooms with servers
Why is this on a different level? Is it because they're ASIANS?
One government is actively committing genocide against subsets of their population I’d say it’s a pretty big fucking difference.
Yeah the US genocide of black Americans needs the earn them some serious sanctions, but it's not relevant to this discussion.
