Was he just being a rocket geek?

Who knows, he has apparently taken a bunch of videos of various components of Schpaze Yikes from various angles:

But then it really depends on his FSB/SVR rank, which is not public.

Do you automatically assume people support Trump when they criticize China? Perhaps Taiwan, Vietnam, the Phillipines, etc would enjoy having a word with you.

Also a 40% stake in a business often makes the CCP the largest single shareholder in a corporation. Other investors wouldn't dare overrule the party when voting on any issue where the CCP chooses to take a stance. All it takes is one board member to monitor the corporation and its executives. That serves as a reminder that the corporation must serve party interest above all else.

Soft power doesn't require complete control.

There is no practical way to do that. Seriously.

I agree. Well, you cannot get everything out and specific things like, say, SSN or more common health problems, can be blanked out with patterns. But misspell the name of the condition you have or describe it instead of using its name and you are already screwed in most cases. And names, quasi-identifiers of people, etc. are basically impossible to recognize reliably.

Hence what needs to be done here is also that anybody working on the data needs to be under oath to not leak any personal data and all processing must be done on isolated infrastructure. Obviously, that makes things slower and more expensive.
