Not to speak of russia who have been sending assassins to kill people in the EU for a long time, and the EU has not been very good at stopping those.
Also, Chinese-owned firms are known to be transferring EU citizens' data to China in violation of GDPR: https://noyb.eu/en/tiktok-aliexpress-shein-co-surrender-euro...
China's government has strategic goals to destabilise and weaken the EU, and data-farming will be part of their strategy.
