Really? Because you could argue that targeted advertising lead to the January 6th riots.

The chinese government doesn't really benefit from data collection on western citizens. At least not if they don't work for intelligence agencies or want to proclaim that Taiwan is a country while being on mainland China.

If you think they're not capable of if not already engaged in PSYOPS, I'd suggest you look deeper into targeted advertising and who is paying for it.

What is your point? Tell me, what the chinese government is supposedly doing with non-chinese user-data that is not worse than what the US surveillance capitalism is currently doing?

Do you seriously think that China spread misinformation about "stolen elections"?
