There's a difference between accepting money and goods from Chinese or Russian investors and accepting money from specific bad actors. For example, taking investor money (and thus giving voting rights) from groups like SoftBank (which has a ton of Saudi Royal family money), is a totally different ballgame from say, buying MacBooks that are made in China.
It's more than just MacBooks manufactured by internal migrants in China[1]. You also have many Chinese tech giants with SV offices: what, refuse to rent them RE, or refuse them building permits? How far does this go?
Not that far. Again, to reiterate my argument, paying money to Chinese companies is not the same thing as giving them a board seat. For me, the line would be drawn at that. If I rent my offices from then, they don't get any control over my company. If I take a billion dollars from them, then I am beholden to them in a large way. Fubdibg another office space or a different pc maker is not a problem.
