Yes, that is highly likely. That’s why I’m always surprised that it’s almost exclusively Chinese products that come under suspicion in public debate. Not that we shouldn’t have safety concerns here as well, but it’s exactly as you say: With U.S. products, it’s at least just as appropriate to fundamentally distrust the manufacturers, especially since the country is obviously ruled by a criminal regime that has absolutely no scruples and blackmails other countries with everything at its disposal.

    Its not that complicated. "China bad, US good" is the mantra of all the politicians in the west. Even with Trump in power going crazy they are still loyal dogs for the US.

    Yes, and the reason for that is lobbying, aka corruption.

    This clearly illustrates the extent to which our politicians are selling out the interests of citizens for their own gain. Right now would be the ideal time to finally promote digital sovereignty, especially since products that don’t come from China or the U.S. could use that trust as a selling point. Unfortunately, however, everything remains the same because our politicians allow themselves to be bribed by criminals in the U.S.

    Bro have you been reading the news? The West basically hates America right now. Actively ramping up funding arms and software intiatives to de-american their supply chains.

    Ah yeah thats why they keep exempting all the big tech companies from privacy laws and why we keep doubling down on US fossil imports despite the obvious need for more renewables.

    The EU populations hates the US, but the leadership is still very divided.
