The future is very uncertain; but dealing with the immediate past the US are much more likely to use their intelligence to drone strike somebody or invade a country.

I would personally rather be spied on by the US than by China, but I can see how a rational person would choose the reverse.

The problem is it's not a either/or situation. If China can spy on you, the US likely can as well with its likely greater resources.

If that were true, the US would not be lobbying so vehemently against Huawei, methinks.

The US can spy on you; they just don't want anyone else to do so as well.
