Depends which nation you are in right?

The world isn't split into two: US or China.

Updated my comment. I'm Canadian. I'm sure in some ways US national security assets benefit certain other countries too, but I'm not sure specifically what that might be.

National security generally depends on which nation you are in or allied with, yes.

I wonder if, for instance, Google an Meta are banned in China.
