The fundamental issue is that people have a right to privacy and information. Open sourcing the code and designs is cool, but what about personal customer information? Why should the Chinese government have that? The contents of the services, if you will. That's the scariest part.

The parent comment I was replying to was talking about trade secrets, not customer information. But on that topic, the US has its own data-gathering operation which presumably is already collecting the same information. There is an opportunity here for someone to step up and speak against this practice.
