> The US is fine with SV domestic spying, and not OK with China collecting this amount of information

Yeah because at the end of the day SV is literally inside of the US and if e.g. a war started, we know what side they are going to be on.

It's really not that hard to figure out.

When the war starts, do we think Zuck and Tim Cook and the Google trio are going to defect to china?

Not China, New Zeeland... If rumors of wealthy people building doomsday bunkers there are true.

Which is equally useless as NZ is aligned with the US and so will not avoid the consequence in case of a conflit with the 'axis of "evil" countries'.

New Zealand is also pretty keen on not pissing off China which makes this an appalling place to hide from both perspectives.
