Chinese Spy Cars
Timothy Birdnow
How China has overtaken U.S. auto production and is using it to spy on us and why wew must stop the importation of cheap Chinese vehicles at all cost.
FTA:
But China’s worldwide strategy of automotive manufacturing and supply chain expansion — directed by the Chinese government and rooted in state subsidized, unfair, anticompetitive trade practices, intellectual property theft, and documented cybersecurity and surveillance risks — has been successful.China has become the world’s largest vehicle producer, vehicle market, and automotive exporter, owning nearly 35% of global production. In 2024 alone, China produced 31 million vehicles, which is three times more than the United States.This extends into the electric vehicle market, with China dominating global battery cell production. In fact, China is projected to account for 4,402 GWh of battery cell production capacity in 2030 — more than North America, Europe, and Asia (ex-China) combined. Of course, in some ways we have invited China’s dominance, especially when it comes to electric vehicles.In 2021, President Joe Biden signed an executive order requiring that 50% of new vehicle sales be zero-emission by 2030. Later in his term, he pledged that his administration would work toward the full electrification of the federal government’s 650,000-vehicle fleet.These sorts of policies set the stage for Chinese automakers to flood the U.S. market with their cheap EVs. That’s exactly what’s happening in Mexico and Europe where Chinese automakers and suppliers have rapidly expanded their presence.Most Chinese vehicles incorporate an array of sensors and significant computing and telecommunications capabilities. Allowing vehicles manufactured by Chinese companies into the U.S. market raises the risk that sensitive data could be accessed, aggregated, or exploited by the Chinese Communist Party.In other words: We could have cheap, Chinese surveillance machines on our streets, in our communities, and near our military bases, spying on our families while parked in our home garages, and sending our personal data back to Beijing.Thankfully, the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania gets it.
An EV is essentially a smart phone on wheels and the Chinese are about to flood America with electronic eyes and we are stupidly going to let them. Why send human spies when you can easily smuggle in a camera?
This artice gets it; we did this to ourselves. China was still a rather pathetic Third World nation until we decided to build them into a superpower. Now they are the greatest threat to Mankind in the world today and that is because we were greedy and wanted to make money using them.
China is going to have to be contained, using policies similar to those we used against the old Soviet Union (the George Kennan plan of Containment.) We have to cut the economic rug out from under them. President Trump has made a good start with his Iran policy, which is really hurting China, whose economy was already in trouble. China could fall amazingly fast if the pressure stays on for a while. But then too they may not; everyone there remembers Tianamen Square. We have to be prepared to be in for the long haul. And I would point out containment only worked on the Soviets when we ramped up the economic and military pressure on them under Reagan. We had forty years of that policy before we REALLY put the pressure on them and they collapsed.
Anyway the Chicoms want Americans to all have spy machines to tell them what is happening here. And like the dopes we are we'll buy their little Matchbox cars and drive them around, giving valuable data to the Chicoms so they can better subvert our country and ultimately conquer us.
