I understand it’s an issue with the software and that it could collect data such as tracking users via GPS, but how would that information get transmitted back to the Chinese and how would they use that data? I do understand the privacy concern, but how is that a security threat for the country?
I saw an interview with the Commerce Secretary today and she said that they (the Chinese) would also have the ability to shut off EVs at will. How would that work?
A lot of people are saying the conversation is just a ruse because the American Auto Industry fears low-cost Chinese EVs. We already have section 301 tariffs in place for Chinese goods so I don’t know that I buy that argument 100%.

All companies collect data of their users and many share those data with the government when asked. All Chinese companies are under Chinese government and all data collected are shared.
China however is not involved with Five Eyes so those data will not be shared with US intelligence agency, so they are a security risk until they agree to share those collected data with US.
