A Fortune investigation has found that U.S. state and federal officials do not currently monitor, or have any process for checking, exactly what data Chinese self-driving cars are collecting and what happens to the data after it is collected.
I’m sure those American Corpos dont have infallible security on their databases either. Could get much more information hacking them and their “partners”.
I think it’s a valid concern in that we need real laws around data and what you’re allowed to do with it or China/ whoever can just buy the data from an american company without needing to do anything themselves. Similarly forcing a sale of TikTok is meaningless if China can buy data from them or compromise their security ala solar winds. There’s a reason Saudi Arabia is so deeply invested in Uber, Reddit, lucid, etc.
I’m kind of questioning the governments intentions and worries. I get why its bad China can just take that data. But its not like our own corporations are bastions of privacy or safety and they even have data on when you fuck in your car. So what’s going on here? Nobody cares about us clearly. They just dont want the CCP having that data. Which, okay, but I know a way nobody can have that data and we are all safe.

Why bother hacking when they can just buy it all from the same folks the cops do?
Lol they probably do
Don’t worry they’re doing that too
Hacking? They can just buy it.
You’re not wrong; your comment is just irrelevant in this context. It’s not about whataboutism.
