Why not both?  So sad when you have to choose a single oppressive regime to
track your internet use.

to be fair, probably:
  o china sees the local mobile and can easily unwrap the probably not
encrypted outer packet headers to get your 'metadata'
  o five-eyes sees the over-water transimission(s) and does the same as above
  o US folk see at the GPRx in the US

So really there's 6 regimes all repressive, in their own right, involved.

This is what roaming data means, Your data packet is simply trunked to
your original operator to process.  So you will be having a US ip on
the web.

And continuity of US tracking of your use rather than temporary Chinese
tracking
