Because I'm American, and while I'm not really a fan of most of the shit they're pulling, it's still more likely to be in my interest (or less against my interests) than whatever the PLA has in mind.

Were you somehow under the impression that you need special American keyboards to type in these support logins and passwords?

Everybody is hacking these. You should not feel comfortable.

I would estimate that the US government does a lot more harm to US citizens than the Chinese government.
