Because the Russian government is much more dangerous to me than the US one.
Russia sent agents to blow up an ammunition depot ~15 kilometers from where I lived (google "Vrbetice 2014" if interested), killing 2 people. Russia regularly poisons and assassinates people. I mean, I'm no big fish to be interesting for Russia, but still the comparison comes out clear.
Russia is currently trying to invade and conquer even larger parts of Ukraine and a significant part of the world is helping Ukraine defend itself at the moment.
I prefer handing my data to privacy-breaching companies if the alternative would be handing data over to a state my government is currently holding a proxy war against.
Lmao, bc Russians will murder me for being gay while the authorities look the other way, amongst all of the other atrocities that their state is perpetuating right now.
