They don't need to defend this, tankies' values don't include privacy from the state.

But western governments with compliant companies have the same or bigger amount of information on their citizens' activities as China is trying to get.

So here's your whataboutism if you want to discard it, as if someone ever really needed a reason to retreat from argument.

If you don't, I'll add that in my opinion future sucks.
