Seems strange though to worry about a kettle when half the things in your house are made in China. Laptop, iPhone, clothes, curtain rails, toys… sure there are also lots of these not made in China, but I’d take a guess a substantial proportion of them in a substantial proportion of homes are made in China. At least a kettle isn’t spying on you (yet), isn’t made of cotton (often particular associations with Uyghurs), isn’t educational material, food, or medical product. I suppose it could have a lead element, or asbestos in the handle, but that seems unlikely.
