Distrusting services from a country due to their government is not xenophobia.
It's the same as avoiding chinese services because of their national policies.
I'd still happily welcome american and chinese people into my country.
Non-US is a start for now though, because they currently have the most control over the internet.
Plus the US government is currently exceptionally hostile to those who aren't US citizens, so I have little reason to trust that they won't abuse me or my data.
