> It's why we can't buy BYD cars
are you sure it has nothing to do with the fact that those cars are very heavy, potentially fire-making (battery firmware) computers on wheels that can be rooted (or are already) at any time by their manufacturers in China?
Is the idea that we're just one OTA update from them turning into bombs? Considering the quality of software in the auto industry, I would be about as worried about any domestically assembled EV.

Is Tesla any different?
if you are adversary of the US and the possibility of a hot conflict with it exists, it is not.
What makes BYD different from, say, Volvo, which sells EVs freely in the US?
