Why do so many American gamers seem convinced that Tencent is some mustache twirling evil villain spying on them? (lemmygrad.ml)

While disregarding the fact that they use Windows and Android. The mental gymnastics is Olympic quality.

I’ve been a gamer for a long time and did I miss a memo or something? I don’t think I’ve ever seen any credible proof that Tencent has done anything more nefarious or more often than American or Japanese software publishers. So I’m not sure how people are zealot level convinced.

You know, according to some people it is CCP's fault, that Characters from Genshin Impact are not sexualised (message me if someone wants to play with me ໒꒰ྀིᵔ ᵕ ᵔ ꒱ྀི১ )

People complaining about data collection from Chinese companies while seeing no problem with other companies or countries is absurd. Data sovereignty (is it how it's called?) is important and I do not want companies to collect my data and probably sell it or do other stuff with it. But it applies to all services on the internet.
