Sure, but they’ll be spying on you too.
What’s better? To be spied by your government that can use your data against you or the foreign government who can’t.
In an ideal world there’d be no spying, but we don’t live in one.
I mean, I agree we don’t want spying, but: a foreign government absolutely can use your data against you. Whether its creating a profile on you that could later be used against you when you enter that country, using it for statistical or targeted data for influence campaigns…there are a lot of ways.
China in particular has repeatedly deployed extra-territorial “police service stations” in at least the UK, Canada and the US to punish or harass those it’s identified as “Chinese” dissidents or sympathizers in other countries.
