Okay I'll admit to not knowing much about China. But do you have evidence to your claim that Chinese spying is worse than what the NSA does (and did according to the PRISM leaks by Snowden)?

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

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.

What impact had PRISM on you personally?

They don’t say China is a better country but in terms of spying yah same thing and China might be better as they well have no impact.
