Except for the rule of law. Apple (for example) is liable if it's found that its products are infringing on privacy rights regardless of where their products are actually made. Good luck trying to sue a Chinese manufacturer.
Read the rest of the line you failed to quote.
Again, provide your source.
And I'm sure you weren't surprised...
I don't disagree with that assumption, but team US-UK is hardly *just* US-UK. The same is true for any other intel alliance.
Since when is a statement of fact to be called an assumption? When the claim that a statement of fact is an unsupported assumption is being made by those unaware or unwilling to admit the facts.
Good luck attempting to disprove anything stated in my posts above.
Chinese manufacturers, by the way, have been sued in the US before and it doesn't take much luck to do so. You'll need more luck to sue and win in the US against a US company that is helping the US spy on US persons.
Do Chinese manufacturers really want something like this kind of talked about outcome
