 And ... ?
 I'd be more worried with AVs with close ties to the NSA. For
the time being, the Russians don't seem to be doing much with whatever
they datamine. In the US you can be put on no-fly lists, have vetoes
to job applications amongst other problems.
 I'd rather be datamined by the Chinese than the Russians, and
the Russians than the Americans.
 Which is why I don't use an AV
 ;)
