Hoping this sets a precedent for the same kind of regulation about non-Chinese corporations. Otherwise it just comes across as sinophobic grandstanding and not actually about protecting the privacy of the end-user.

The bavarian police just implemented fucking Palantir for their own use starting in august, so nah it's just sinophobia.

You are using acts by Bavarian police to say that acts by Berlin privacy officers are sinophobic.
