I am not bothered by //security// since i trust China not less nor more than the US (or whatever other country...). The funny thing is that this is a Chinese devleoped open source app. You can see it by the quality of the translations, somehow this make it more interesting to me, as non-English Open Source community needs to be helped and supported as much as possible for a richer and more diverse ecosystem.
