This dystopian vision would require lighting the Fourth Amendment on fire and lead to widespread human rights violations of innocent people. Is corporate espionage a problem? Of course it is. Is it worth abandoning the principles of a free society for? Absolutely not.

If you can't beat them, join them, I guess. CCP has been saying for 70 years that a free society cannot compete with a totalitarian society. US can either agree or disagree. What we cannot honestly do is claim to disagree but agree via our actions.

Citizens should always be incredibly insulated from any sort of government interference, I agree. The Constitution should be ratified so any time it mentions “people” or “persons” it instead says “citizens”. We need a separate document that applies to non-citizens.

Sounds a bit like ancient Athens. (That's not a complement.)

No, the choice to learn in American institutions, make tons of American money, and live the American dream. None of those things should benefit a country that we are in direct competition with.
Slavery is wrong, becoming an international student to get a world-class education and work in the center of the tech industry is not. Comparing them is very silly.
We need to halt all student visas from China and any other hostile nation, unless we can change the law so that government privacy doesn’t apply to them, 100% of their communications are monitored at all times, their homes can be searched at any time with no notice, and once gaining their visa, they aren’t allowed to leave the country for a minimum of 20 years, to ensure they use their American education on American companies. We need an international non-compete clause.
