Starlink used ~100W at launch, and it's coming to phones. They could also use cell towers directly. Or sharing data in a swarm with nearby units and sending on whichever has access. Or they wait to upload until they're on wifi when nobody cares about data usage.
There are a lot of theoretical options here. The point isn't to look at a single option, but to consider what China may consider doing once they have eliminated competition. Exfiltrating data is one option, but there are others as well.
The solution isn't to ban DJI drones, but to ensure there's enough competition that they don't have a monopoly.
