I think that's a little unfair to characterize the Chinese government as uniquely nefarious. NSA's Prism gives the US Gov't free reign over troves of information held by US based software and information services companies.

I didn't set up any kind of false choice. It's possible that Western Europe, for instance, decides to stay away from both.

It's not at all. We can still criticize the US government for their actions.

You actually couldn't do that in China.
