Believe it or not, I can be concerned about both.
The difference is, the place where I live has some data privacy regulations which actually get enforced, and I have some legal recourse against organizations which mishandle my data. China does not have such regulations and I do not have any recourse against organizations based there, so my risk from them is significantly higher.
The most important reason for OSHA to exist is to prevent managers from cutting corners on safety. Without regulation, the companies will risk peoples’ lives to save a few dollars.

It’s spreading. We need containment.
I think it’s contagious.
InControl by Steve Gibson allows you to set a specific Windows release version and prevent further feature updates, but does allow security updates:
InControl controls Windows automatic updating/upgrading system by targeting it to a specific major version and feature update release. By default, the current release will be used. So if you “Take Control” with the major version and feature release shown in the boxes in the lower left, Windows will remain right where it is – only installing monthly security updates – until you “Release control”.
Also:
Like all of GRC’s ultra lightweight freeware utilities, no setup or installation is required. Just run the utility with administrative rights. InControl’s operation can be scripted from the command line, and full technical details about the Registry keys it changes is provided.
I think the tricky part is getting a virtual network interface from pihole that can be properly configured in the Android Settings > Connection & sharing > Private DNS > Specified DNS.
For this to work on the mobile device, you don’t want pihole to make itself accessible on the external network interface, but rather an internal (virtual) interface that Android sees as a valid DNS server so that it can be permanently configured (otherwise you would have to reset the private DNS IP address every time you connected to a new WiFi network, and it would be tricky to get it working on the cell network at all).
but I am le tired
Hmm… I wonder if I could run pihole in an onboard container and force all my local device traffic through it…
It probably heavily depends on where you are from.
What makes you think so?
How much wood would a wood duck quack if a wood duck could quack wood?
The legal precedents that have been set in this area basically boil down to this: if the police could unlock your phone while you were unconscious (e.g. by placing your finger on it or pointing it at your face) then they are allowed to do so.
You cannot be legally compelled to reveal your password or unlock a device with your password. Obviously you could be forced anyway, but evidence collected this way would be inadmissable in court.
It’s not a problem, until it is a problem.
“It hasn’t happened yet” is not a valid basis for making decisions.

This projection of the 4-dimensional being into 3D space appears as the Mandelbrot set. Weirdly, it appears to be the Mandelbrot set no matter what angle you look at it from in 3D space.
