Well at least American telecoms are fighting them. The European MO is to not only let themselves be conquered, but they actually pay China to do it. Thankfully American online services are on Europe's side, and work harder than anyone to protect their communications. These services don't even charge Europe anything, and Europe rewards them with billions of dollars of fines for doing it. Europe also defaced our websites in an effort to tax the attention economy, and removed legal protections for open source developers.
