Same goes for US companies.

Have we learned nothing from Snowden?

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.

China is a one-party state I wish you could realise how hilarious it is to read someone comparing the US and China on their number of political parties...
